...continuing

...in the same vein as I have been lately I decided to make several cards using the same stamp.  I have been stamping out images and then putting them aside for coloring when I am sitting with my family and watching a show or movie.  Today, my husband and son were spending the day re-habbing my laundry room and so I was able to spend a large amount of the day crafting.  I really enjoyed myself....I have cleaned and "redesigned" the layout of my craft room and find that I am able to access more of my supplies and I came across this particular stamp set from Hero Arts called Delicate Blossoms.  I don't think I have ever inked this particular stamp set up before.  It was fun to color but then I really had a hard time making it into a card.  Wasn't really sure where to "chop" the image and it is a loooong image.  So, here are my attempts.  I wanted to create three very different cards but think I came up a little short of that goal....all three cards are actually pretty similar but I still like them!




So, thank you for stopping by....I really appreciate it when you do and certainly am tickled pink whenever you leave comments!  Really, itsn't it sooo nice to see and read the comments?  Personally,
I just love it.

Be well,
Sheila

Wow Sheila love your coloring and what you've done with this stamp!!!! My favorite is the last card, with the distressing around the edges it makes the flowers seem to shine!
