I created this card for my SIL's birthday. She has the most beautiful garden and adores flowers so that was my inspiration, that and that I love this PSX image After all the coloring was done, I sealed it with a spray fixative to prevent the pastel chalks from rubbing off. This is a pretty straight forward card. The only difficulty was cutting the ribbon with the craft knife as I am craft knife challenged!

What lovely flowers! You did an excellent job coloring. And I never would have known that the bow & tag were a separate stamp if you hadn't said so... they look so good on the bucket.
