And, big flower.

Yep....whenever I see one of these Stampendous large flower stamps in store I snap it up!  I love how BIG they are and how much fun they are to color.  Just pure coloring enjoyment although it could probably be paper pieced to really nice effect too.  So, nothing more to say here.....some coloring, come pretty patterned paper, some lovely die cut butterflies....and that's about it!  I will put a sentiment on the inside.....I believe that this card will be part of my chemo angeling and I think I will enclose a burned cd of music to her.  I love to do that with square cards!


I think the card might be too "busy" but in general I like it!  The flower's color looks really intense here in photo....much more that it does in real life.  I'm not sure why that is.  I did take the photo outside in the sun and perhaps that is why?  I usually take my photo's in our home office by a window and most of the time I end up needing the flash.  Anyhoo.....enough techie talk.  I hope you all have a wonderful day in your neck of the woods....it has been in the 90's for several days here in Wisconsin.....pretty warm for us!

Be well,
Sheila

I am trying to master the photography stuff, too Sheila! I am truly not that interested in learning about it, I just want the results! ha! I always love your flowers - you are so great at coloring them. Love your idea for including a CD - you are such a sweetheart.

Beautiful flower, Sheila! I just got a whole pail of Stampendous! stamps over 1/2 half & at least 1 is a flower, so you've inspired me to get inking!

Fabulous Sheila. Your flower is beautifully coloured. I got a large Stampendous stamp and haven't inked it up yet. Will have to get it out and have a go.
