Well Corry I had to do another 5.5 x 5.5" card again, my background stamp of SU's Medallion was too big and I didn't want a partial stamped image. I used the sketch from Sunday Sketch and Stamp Challenge 22 this time and picked the colors from Tuesday Morning Sketch Challenge 34 - Apricot Appeal, Very Vanilla and Chocolate Chip, although these aren't my normal colors I like the way it turned out. I thought of Lori a lot while doing this card as she likes the arm tones. No patterned paper for this card I made my own this time. I stamped the Medallion stamp with Craft Apricot Appeal and stamped it on Apricot Appeal paper, I added clear EP and heated it up. For an extra accent I added color with my woodless pencils in the shadowed areas of the Medallion image.
I used copics to color my Miss Anya image but also used coloring pencils, blending stump and baby oil for extra dimension in the shading.
Here is a close up to show the detail of the Medallion stamp and also of the embossed Chocolate Chip paper where I used a copper metallic rub on to enhance the embossing.

Very pretty card. Not my usual color combination either but I am glad Melissa used it for TMS cause I'm really liking it now. Thanks for sharing your great project.
I like the 5.5" X 5.5" cards better, as they allow for more space to enhance the cards. (I have envelopes from Staples 5 7/8" X 9 5/8" and they fit these cards no problem with excess).
I love the card, colors and the fact that you made it your own with the background! Woo hoo, girl!
Oh I love the scroll detailing with the sparkle! nicely done...
have a nice weekend!
