I dug up some retired SU stamps for this week's color challenge to use red, yellow, and green. I inked the image with markers before stamping and then used a water pen to pull the color from the outline to fill in the leaves and berries.

Terrific! Love how you used the colors. I like how you masked the flower stems for the sentiment. I have some tall flowers that would work well with this idea. The background is so pretty. Great job! Into my favs. TFS

Donna, what a beautiful card using the retired stamp sets! I have a ton of them, and I should do something with them. But YOU have, and I love how you've used the colors and also made a gorgeous background! Love the layout too with the sweet stitched ribbon. Hugs and love! xoxo

Wow, the design/layout on this card is perfection! Somehow you were able to make a colored collage type bgd and keep it CAS....and you kept it all on one layer for the stamping by masking and placement.
I am shaking my head in awe at your talent. And those pearls? The final, perfect touch to a deceptively complicated CAS card. Nicely done! TFS
