Make It Monday #196: Colorful Card Corners

Well, it's nice to be back! I've missed about a month of MIM's, and I've missed making cards!! I've been working on a quilt for my daughter-in-law, for her upcoming birthday, so I haven't had any time to get inky.
Anyway, I have a gazillion birthdays, and a couple of anniversaries to make cards for, so now that the quilt is almost finished, I took time out to make one card. Since Danielle introduced the topic of "colourful card corners", I've had this stamp set, "Mimi Blooms", in mind. The sentiment is from "Embellished Elegance", and the background is B.Basics: Postmarks", all of which are PTI.
I used Distress markers to colour in the blooms, then spritzed before stamping. I added some blue watercolours over the background, and a few tiny, iridescent flower sequins for some pizzazz.
Thanks for looking!
