Glistening Blooms

Greetings! Today I hope to make a few cards and here is the first ....

This card is actually much smaller than it looks - I used a die from Papertrey Ink Don't Forget to write kit. I love this size card.
The image is from Honey Bee Stamps - brand new to me and much loved already! The sentiment is from MFT and fits perfectly. I used Zig Markers and Gansai Tambai watercolour to colour the image and then made it 'GLISTEN' with Wink of Stellar over the whole image. 
I'ts hard to see the shimmer in the photo, but it is there!

I am entering the following challenges:-
NBUS (I haven't used the optional twist in this one)
CASology - Glisten 
Simon Wednesday Challenge - Anything Goes
Craft Stamper Take it, Make it Challenge

    I can definitely spot the shimmer, Jenny, and am also a big fan of little cards that pack a big punch! Love the vibrancy in those blooms and the dramatic black frame. Thanks so much for sharing with us at CASology this week!
