This card is 4.25 inches square. Which I love, because you can still mail it in a regular envelope, which I always have on hand, and not have to pay extra postage.
I inked the flower petals with my Real Red ink pad, then colored the stamen directly to the rubber with a More Mustard marker, then stamped. Once it was on the paper, I added ruby red and basic black highlights, by coloring over top parts of the image I had just stamped. The leaves were inked in celery, then marker to rubber highlights with an olive marker. I just trimmed around the circles to get that scallop at the bottom, then rubbed the edges with a black marker. Stickles and brads and voila!
