For today's CAS challenge - "Bulbs or Bulb Flowers". I have the perfect stamp that includes both the bulb and its flower.
It's like a vintage botanical drawing
so I decided to do a bister background in natural and brown to make it look like an aged print. I sprinkled more of the natural bister, with just a bit of black at the bottom, then spritzed and let it dry naturally. Then I stamped the image in black, trimmed it, mounted it on black cs, and popped it up on dimensionals on a white cardbase.
I never thought I'd give a man a card with a flower on it but this seems masculine enough for a friend who loves plants and gardening.

Oh, You do have the perfect stamp. I searched and searched for a digital image of something like this but couldn't find any.
Your card has a vintage feel to it with the background you did with this. Lovely!
