I was sipping my morning coffee while reading these details , so the coffee container became my inspiration.
I chose the primrose from Flourishes Calendar Set 1 for the focal point and colored it with Prismacolor pencils and baby oil. After cutting it out with Labels 4 Nestabilities, I inked the edges with Smoky Shadow ink. I scored the card base near the bottom and added a little bling which I colored with a Copic marker.
To be honest I think I was also influenced by the weather. Soooo many gray days. Where is the sun? I hope it's shining where you are.
Thanks for stopping by,
Cammie

Stamps: Calendar Set 1 (Flourishes)

Oh how pretty your card is! I love the blue in the paper and how you matched the flowers to it. Love Basic Grey paper. I'm also new to the Flourishes site and entered the contest to for the 'From the Garden' set. I see you did too. And now a tea set! Between PTI and Flourishes I'll be broke this month but a happy stamper!
