I made this card for my niece, Josie's 15th birthday in May and am putting it in this week's Ways To Use It Challenge - May Flowers.
My flowers in the bg are from SU Friends Never Fade set, I stamped them using Bashful Blue, Regal Rose & Gumball Green markers. I then lightly sponged the white c/s with Bashful Blue ink. The lovely young lady stamp - also a Josephine - I stamped with Momento Rich Cocoa ink and coloured with copics and a white gel pen. Lightly sponged around her with Bashful Blue ink. Used Spellbinders circle dies and added the blue ribbon, pearls and gingham bow.
Thank you for looking!

Beautiful b'day card, Sue, with a vintage flavor with the image of the pretty old-fashioned girl. Love the flowery bg you created and the wonderful way you colored your image.
