Blue Hydrangea


Just playing with my newest stamp! We can't seem to grow these gorgeous blue plants here in Ohio, but I always enjoy seeing them along the East Coast when we're on vacation. I love this color of blue. I guess stamping them is the next best thing to growing them! The idea for this design came from Carole.

Supplies: Hero Arts stamps K5376 Hydrangea, S4878 Old Letter Writing, CL380 Truly Appreciated

Your card is beautiful! Love the touch of the button and twine. I do love hydrangeas. I have several different kinds in my yard. Yes, they do well in south Georgia :-)

Beautiful hydrangea with lovely coloring! Another favorite stamp and flower of mine. :) We don't do so well with ours to much sun in our yard and exposure.
