Delphiniums are one of my favourite flowers, partly because I love the colours they come in. I chose all the delphinium-like colours amongst my alcohol inks and smooshed them on a piece of Yupo.
I die cut a large circle out of my piece of smooshed Yupo and then die cut the Delphinium Circle from the centre of that. Then I die cut an even larger stitched circle out of white cs.
I also die cut the Delphinium Circle out of a scrap of cs to use as a mask over the white circle so that I could figure out the placement of my stamping. I have the discontinued Ranger Big and Juicy Hydrangea ink pad - a wonderful mix of the same blues and mauves, so used that for my stamping. The flowers are the closest thing I have to delphiniums that would fit with the die. They are stamped in a mix of first and second generation inking.
Three little co-ordinating gemstones give a bit of sparkle and the whole panel is popped up on fun foam.

How beautiful, Susan. I love the combination of the stamped and die-cut flowers. I too really like the colours in delphiniums...and they always remind me of the A.A. Milne poem about the dormouse.
