Hello!
Today's Serendipity Stamps challenge is to use a Mother's Day theme and a sketch! Here is the sketch.
Here is my card ~
The base CS is Regal Rose with a mat of Select White and then Dark Chocolate. All of the DP as well as the paper the image was stamped on is included in Cosmo Cricket's Honey Pie Collection. I stamped the DARLING Tulip Vase image using Cocoa Momento ink and then colored using my Copics and Prismacolor Pencils. The vase was paper pieced and I added some clear glitter on the tulips just to add a little shimmer. The swirls down the side were punched using a new EK Success border punch. The ribbon is Regal Rose grosgrain, Orange Martha Stewart ribbon and linen thread. I don't know that I like the bow but couldn't seem to find anything else I wanted to add.
Here is a closer look at the image ~
Be sure to check out my teammates creations using this sketch and theme!
Thanks for stopping by and I hope you have a great day!
