This is an old stamp from Stampa Rosa but it's a good one! I did paper piecing for the tulips part of this one, using Dove Grey Staz On ink. A little shading was done on the tulips, and the main stamped image was colored with Tombow markers. The bg was done with a pretty blue chalk ink and cotton swabs. After all the paper pieced flowers were adhered, this was embossed.
The pretty lavender bg paper is old and from the Mrs. Grossman's store at the plant. I've been hoarding this for several years.
The sentiment is raised in the middle and both ends adhered flat.

Jennifer your tulips are super pretty as is the whole card. WOW! Say, have fun at Big Sur. I too, love the fresh out door air. That's why I sleep with the patio door wide open, winter or summer. (unless it is raining with the wind blowing. hehe) Love this card. TFS :0)
