This card is really CAS for me...about as bare-bones as I can get. I usually like to go for a little more texture, embellies, etc. But some stamps are so pretty that they don't need any extra help to shine. This is my very fave IO stamp. It looks great stamped in any colors, and is gorgeous in rich fall tones. But since it's spring here, I opted for some nice bright spring greens and blues.
I used my Misti, and the Arteza real brush pens for the leaves, and Ranger Archival ink for the verse.
I used this picture from the Victoria Bellas Carter catalog as inspiration in this week's Inspiration Challenge.

Oh my! I see why this is your favorite stamp! Your leaves look real and the sentiment is divine! This could framed or be a cover for an art journal! Gorgeous!
