F4A246 Garden Flourish

Photo Details

Poster: catluvr2

Always out of my comfort zone when I have to stamp. Happy I got it the first time, thanks to my Stampamagig. Stamped first, then stenciled. Looked too blah, so I scored twice around the perimeter. Still didn't like it, so added the pearls and sequins. I really do like mats on my cards.

You are not capable of a blah card, Priscilla! Your eye for color, design and embellishing is something else! Stamping on textured paper is not always easy and yours is perfect! Gorgeous card!

It's hard to not go crazy with "stuff" on our cards, huh! However, if this end product is an example, I'd say "WOW"....it's beautiful!

Lovely. The stampamajig is one of the best tools ever!! I love the flourish of flowers, and you are right....the sequins add the perfect touch!

Wow....when I read your blurb....I thought 'that's odd'....and I went back and looked at several of your cards.....and you actually hardly ever use stamps!!! I've never noticed that! I've just been too busy admiring your beautiful cards, I guess!! You did a lovely job on this one!

...sure it�s got a catchy beat, but can you stamp to it?

I especially like how that perfectly stamped image wraps around the sentiment. LOVE the stenciled part in that beautiful shade of blue. AND your scoring ROCKS. I always mess it up when I attempt to add like this when the card is almost finished. Yours looks beautiful! LOVE this...
