Lorettal(Loretta) suggested the site of BLUMENTHAL LANSING, a supplier of all kinds of buttons, to Stef for this week's Inspiration Challenge.
My daughter had gifted me with this lovely SU set and the "bridemaid bouquet" inspired me to ink it up. Surprisingly, I used no buttons on my card. Watercolors were used to color my image. I couldn't get the photo from the site to link, so I just printed a picture of it and photographed it along with my card.

This is so pretty. I love your coloring on it. This is my favorite flower. I have blue and lime green hydrangas. I just love all those little buds. Great card.

this is wonderful Sallie. I love it when the Hydrangeas start to turn that purplish and deep pink colours. Ours are all still blue except one bush of deep purples.
