I've stamped the flower fairly close to the edge of the card and heat embossed in copper, then partially die cut, cutting the rest with a ruler. I've literally only touched the image with 2 light pink Prismas because there's a lot of definition on the stamp.
I used a scrappy die cut to cover the flower and used an Altenew stencil and DOX in Spun Sugar to add some interest with blended lines. The sentiment is one of quite a few included in the set.
I added a black panel splattered with white and used black as the contrasting colour on the main card. A little sparkle to finish.
