One down, one to go

Ok, so I got my card done for the FFF Fluttery Floral challenge... yeah! I used Wild Sprout Dahlia just slightly altered, I changed her mouth, got rid of the buttons on the front of her dress and swapped out the flowers she was holding behind her back for a paint brush.
For this kind of altering where I am just taking a few things away from an image, all I do is ink up the stamp and then with the corner of a slightly damp paper towel I carefully wipe the ink off of the parts of the image that I want to change. Then I stamp the image and draw in what I want to add with a Copic black multiliner pen... usually a 0.1
Now it looks like I just need to be patient while they add this challenge category to the galleria then I can get my entry in there... :)
