I've been up since 5:30 am. My soil was delivered at 8:00 am. Before heading outside I decided to check Google Reader just one more time.Gah. I saw Michelle Wooderson's post and thought I would make a quick card. :-) This card is completely inspired not only by Michelle's picture, but by Michelle's style as well.
Here is one of the inspiration pictures
and here is my card
As soon as I saw the blue strawberry fabric I knew which stamp I was going to use. It was already on my desk from this card that I made yesterday. I coloured the image with markers, misted it with water and then stamped onto watercolour paper.
I cut out the flowers for extra dimension
and added a polymer clay button by Jane Beljo to the bow.
Both stamps are by Penny Black. Patterned paper is a mix of digital and pieces from my scrap box.
I'm off to plant some trees. For real this time!
:-) Barbara

Is the flowers where you ink and then mist with water?
