Spring Flowers

Hello,
For today I am entering Cards in EnvyRetro Rubber Challenge, and Inspired by the Little Things. Here is my card for today, enjoy!!


The shabby background was done by lightly stamping a wood grain pattern on aqua cardstock. I then layered aqua acrylic paint with a dry brush on the card.
The color theme for this card was unusually wonderful.
The garden flowers were stamped, painted, and then fussy cut.
This set is a retired set from SU called Fabulous Florets
 I feel that it turned out very well and am happy with the result.

I would love your card to be considered for one of our Top Picks but you didn't mention the age of the stamp which is necessary to be considered.

Gorgeous use of the Fabulous Florets flowers. They really sparkle on the vintage aqua background. Love that you added acrylic paint... gives more texture. Thanks so much for sharing your pretty card with Retro Rubber this week and for adding the age of the stamp. Hope to see you in our gallery often.
