This week Crafty Secrets invited me to be a member of their design team. Since this is my favourite stamp company I feel greatly honoured. I have an enormous learning curve ahead of me as I am technologically challenged and CS has moved ahead with the times and gone digital. This week my printer should arrive and tomorrow morning I have a tech support tutorial at my house to teach me what I'm doing. As I'm not yet up to snuff this one was done the old fashion way....with stamps!
This card is for Mary Jane who has suffered a stroke and the theme was gardening and flowers.
I used elements from 2 stamp sets: "Garden Girls" and "Fairyland". The images were stamped, coloured, and cut out. The yellow flowers each have a rhinestone in the centre.

Congratulations on the DT and this card is adorable. I haven't gone digital either, I use copics and they don't work well with ink jet printers so eventually I will have to go to a laser printer and get with the technology.
