For my card I started with this great paper pack from Cosmo Cricket called Wanted.  Using my Swatch 2 background stamp and Versafine black ink, I stamped the image on two pieces of paper from the pack, they have a wonderful wood grain pattern.  I cut out the flower rectangles from the teal piece and mounted it onto the peach piece.  I mounted this onto a black panel, then added another woodgrain striped panel from the paper pack; layering them all onto my teal card stock.  For the center square, I began by stamping Flower Bunch Square Large onto a piece of teal card stock as well as a piece of Cryogen white card stock.  I cut out the center flower square from the white card stock, mounted it onto black card stock then layered that onto the teal square; attaching it all to the center of the background image.  Copics used to color the flower; E93, E97, YG61, BG70.  I added a black ribbon and some black Viva Decor Pearl Pen accents.  Finished size is 4.25 x 5.5 inches.
