Show your Newest Stamp

That's the challenge at Simon Says Stamp and Show, and I'm only too happy to oblige :)  I've been playing with some brand spankin' new Hero Arts 2011 stamps, and these flowers are part of a clear set called Blossom Art:


The flowers and leaves from this set were stamped on various colored cardstocks, and distressed with some fired brick distress ink. The aqua background was embossed with a Sizzix embossing folder and sanded, then it was layered with a My Mind's eye striped dp, some lace and the sentiment from another new clear Hero Arts set called Sending Smiles Messages.

Also adding this to the Flourishes Timeless Tuesday challenge: Flowers.

Supplies:  Core'dinations Bluebell, various orange, gold and green cardstocks, My Mind's Eye striped paper, Versafine onyx black and fired brick distress inks, lace
