************************

For this month I have chosen a very simple theme, and very fitting for this time of the year...

*Pretty Flowers*

They don't have to be the focal point of you card, just be sure there are some flowers somewhere on your creation.

Feel free to use any stamp maker, and you may combine this with any other challenges. 

Just remember these simple rules:

It must be a new creation
You must mention my challenge and link back here in your post

You may enter up to 4 times

Please note, winner will be chosen from US entries due to postage cost and lack of tracking overseas. 

 For this month I inked up the stamp Divine, which was one of the large beautiful floral stamps released by Penny Black earlier this year.

The blooms on this stamp are large enough to paper piece. It's what I had in mind when I purchased this stamp. I used some polka dotted paper from my stash, but also used a gray copic to add some shadows on the paper. The background was masked off using washi tape, then watercolored. The words stamped on the bottom were done with a clear set from Whimsy Stamps.  After removing the washi tape, I stamped the image and then added the fussy cut blooms. 

Product List: 

Divine, Snippets
(both are available in my Stamp Shop)
basic backgrounds and borders (Whimsy Stamps)
mixed media card and neenah card stock
striped vellum, designer paper from stash
watercolor paints, button, hemp twine


This month I am giving away this beautiful stencil to one randomly selected winner.

Now it's your turn to get inky. To play along simply link your creation below. If inlinkz is not available, simply leave a comment with your post link below.

You have until Sunday May 24th 8AM to play along.

Happy stamping :-)
