Thank you for your warm welcome, Carol! Lovely card with the pretty traditional lantern, and beautiful sketch/LO in the background. Wonderful soft colors. to contrast with your golden flame! So pretty! hugs, de

Wow, this is soo pretty Carol - your lantern looks so 3D but as you've just mentioned Promarkers and glossy accents I have to assume that your awesome colouring talents are responsible for the beautiful effect you have achieved.Oh, your ivy flourish is so pretty and I love the toning flowers and ribbon. A gorgeous Christmas card. Love Ingrid xx

That's such a fab card. I've made a similar one with glossy accents on the candlelight, but haven't blogged it yet (at least I don't think I have - my memory isn't great at the best of times lol!). Hope you are having a good weekend. Maddy x
