Via my friend Sue's blog I saw and loved the colors in this inspiration picture for this weeks challenge on The Play Date Cafe blog.
I haven't been inspired lately but this afternoon I just saw the Silhouette grass stamp mixed with lavender in my head and I had a card done in next to no time. That's the beauty of these stamps. I have a very old stamp from SU, dated 1997, which I used to create a pollen effect. The butterflies are digi, reduced in size. I love the fact that I can use lots of different scrap papers and just print out what I need, any size I need.
The Silhouette grass stamp is Hero Arts as well as the digi butterflies and the lavender is from Rubber Stampede.
Jacqueline this is marvelous!! So beautiful, and you captured the photo perfectly!
