I colored my image with my Prismacolor pencils and gamsol. I really wanted to keep my card layout very clean and simple so I embossed my cardstock for some texture and added some crimson pearls. I added a little bit of Glamour Dust to my image. I colored two bows and cut one out and popped it up using foam dots. My friend Dolly gave me the idea to pop up the bow...thanks, Dolly! Aside from coloring all those leaves (and I swear they kept multiplying while I was coloring them lol) this was a pretty simple card to make.
