Hope Your Day Blossoms.....


I'm back today with another card using Penny Black stamps.  This lovely background stamp is called Glory of Modesty, and I stamped it using clear ink, then embossed it with a bright limey green.  Then I used a pink marker to give some detail to the flowers.  After trimming to the size I needed, to add a little more interest, I cut the panel into 4 equal parts, and then reassembled it onto a pink panel. I glued that onto my card base, stamped the sentiment from the Friendship set, and added some punched butterflies embellished with pearls.  

Really quite an easy card to make, but I think it will bring a smile to someone special.......

Thanks for visiting me today!
