Heartfelt Creations...Earthy Flowers

Hello and welcome to Wednesday's Heartfelt Creations post! This week, I've taken out some lovely floral images and went to work on them with my Copics. I really do not use markers that often, I feel like I'm not to acquainted with them, but then, I also don't take any time to acquaint myself with them. Anyway, here is my card, using Heartfelt Creation's Posy Patch Garden Delights and Inspire Me Sentiments sets:

Cut patterned paper to 3 7/8" X 2" for top half and 3 7/8" X 3 1/4" for bottom half, adhere to cream base. Adorn top seam with ribbon.
