Really hot colors today! Like Karen, I'm using olive for my fourth color. I actually made this a while ago but forgot to upload it here. The colors fit...so here it is!
Technically, the image is a hydrangea & except for the leaves, it looks a lot like a geranium. So I stamped it 3 times, colored with Copics & fussy cut, making sure to trim off the leaves. I love geraniums so I have 3 sizes of geranium leaf punches & used those for the new leaves. After punching the leaves out of green card stock, I added some color to mimic real leaves and some “vein” lines with a stylus.
The greeting was stamped on a large leaf & I added a couple of stamped & die cut bees & a die cut white background. I used a curved border die on the white & green backgrounds & attached them to a piece of dp.
Thanks so much for looking! Closeups & the colors of Copics I used are on my blog: The Write Stuff

More like geraniums, I think. Love the little bees.

Whatever you want to call the flowers, they are beautiful. The other elements you have put with them, i.e., die-cut, dsp, bee and sentiment all come together like a beautiful garden!
