Happy Easter!! I hope you're all enjoying a lovely long weekend!
We have friends coming for dinner this evening so I am posting this and then will have to run around with hoover and start cooking ;-)
I made this card using a new and absolutely GORGEOUS Simon Says Stamp Folk Art Flowers Cling Stamp. I love that you can remove and add bits of the stamp to be able to stamp in different colors without having to use masks!
I removed the flowers and dot stamps from the background and inked the leaves with Mowed Lawn and Peeled Paint Distress Inks. then I popped in the dots and inked them up with Hickory Smoke Archival Ink. I then popped the flowers back in the removed the leafy background, carefully to leave the flowers in place, and then used Squeezed Lemonade and Spiced Marmalade Distress Inks for them.
I really love how this has turned out!
I added a torn strip of vellum to add a little extra interest, a few gems and pearls and a sentiment to finish.
Thanks for looking!
