This is the June stamp from the Flourishes Year of Flowers. I cannot say enough about the quality of the stamps. WOW. I like a lot of acrylic stamps, but it is really rare when the quality is this good - like a rubber stamp. The only other clear stamps I have found that are this clear are the Crafty Secrets Clear Art Stamps. This was stamped with the Memento Tuxedo black and the image was CRISP and CLEAR.
Anyway - I digress. I colored it with the YR copics. YR000, YR00, YR02, YR07. The greens are the G21, 24, 28. This is the second one I colored. I colored another rose with reds, and it came out really nice as well... but that is going on a calendar, and I am not done with it yet, so will post it when I finish.
I used Nestabilities on the rose stamp, and the dark peach border. I went around the white and dark peach cardstock with a gold leafing pen. Added the ribbon, the Thanks stamp and the gold beading.

It's beautiful! Thanks for the deets and the opinion on how well you like them. I have been vasilating back and forth whether or not I want to buy these or search for the PSX retired. Guess I could buy all three sets or just 3 PSX stamps. Now that I know how they ink up, the answer is simple. This is just stunning, love the gold leafing around the nesties.
