It was tough deciding which painting to take inspiration from - what a gorgeous bunch of artwork. Always makes me feel good when people like Glenda, and Michelle Zindorf, who are artists to BEGIN with, take on stamping - or enjoy stamping because it makes it REAL ART to me somehow.... These paintings are just awesome! I am going to check out her SCS gallery now.....Okay - I cannot begin to figure out how to get the painting I chose linked without linking the whole blog, but the one I chose is named IMAGINE TULIPS, and it's at the bottom of the first page of her blog.....and here it is:
I finished my card at 2:00 am, but thought gee, wait till morning to post it and get a little more sleep that way......so here it is - I LOVE the way my card turned out- I rarely say I love my own work, (outloud to everyone anyway) but TODAY I LOVE THIS CARD.....I WANT TO EAT IT FOR LUNCH......Hope you like it too!! (after looking at the entire gallery - I have to say, I could eat most of those cards for lunch......when given GREAT INSPIRATION, we really reach the mark, eh???)

Isn't it such a great feeling when you're so happy with your own card. The one I made for my brother's 40th stands out in my memory as one of the few of my own that gave me warm fuzzies. I can see why you'd love this so much. Unusual colour scheme and it works so well with the flowers. You could use it for 4th of July, LOL. That is one gorgeous bunch of tulips.

Don't eat it! It's one of those cards that you won't wanna part with! Much less eat! We DID do the same painting and had I had some tulips I woulda used tulips! I like tulips better than poppies! Your card is absolutely gorgeous! YOur coloring is to die for!!! You definately achieved an artsey look here! Love it!
