Flowers in Bloom

Part two of the  CR84FN52 challenge starts today.  The lovely soft colors inspired me to pull out the beautiful Prima Almanac papers and create another flowery card. .


The hydrangeas from Hero Arts are stamped onto the paper using Ranger Archival ink  and colored with watercolor pencils.  The sentiment is from Verses Rubber Stamps - Flowers in Bloom - FS1119. and stamped onto tissue paper using black archival ink. The bees are from Impression Obsession and were added at the end..   The flowers look more purple in my photo but in real life are a lovely pink.



Here are the sweet colors:

Wonderful colour combination and just perfect for the vintage look you have achieved on this wonderful card Sue. The Hydrangea image is beautiful and I love the addition of the bees. I have lots of lovely insect images and always forget to use them :-(
