It's been a busy summer and I have not had a lot of time to spend much time making cards. Getting my mojo back wasn't the easiest thing to do until I noticed the colors this week for the Color Throwdown Challenge. I took out one of my favorite retired Flourishes stamps designed by Marcella Hawley years ago, and colored it up using the CTD challenge colors.

I can see why this is a favorite stamp - it's gorgeous! Your coloring does it much justice, too. You chose to set it in swiss dots and scallops - they're perfect. Thank you so much, I needed to see this lovely card today!
