This is for Judy's fun TLC challenge. I made the bright background with Dylusions Ink Sprays, then stamped the flower image and watercoloured with distress inks to add a bit more colour.
Hmmm now to find a punch that will cut the cardstock with a gazillion layers of ink. The only punch that worked was a Stampin up tag punch. I wrecked the first card trying to punch it so I turned that into a gift card and started again and made a bigger card.
Thank you for looking.

Fabulous! Once again I love that background and that stamp! The added coloring really brings them out! Love your doodles highlighting the outlines of the images Susie!

HAHAHAHAHAHA You and I need the same type products!! I would suggest a collaboration, but I'm pretty sure there are international laws that would prevent that. If there aren't, NATO would drop the Israel/hamas stuff in a hurry to come up with a few. ;) As always, I'm a fan of EVERYTHING you do, and Jay-Bee is right...they look like gorgeous screens!!!

Just ink and you have trouble with a punch? I'm a bit surprised, LOL - it takes something like ModPodge before I've ever run into that sort of problem. Those rich warm colours are fab, and the crackled background just adds to it - reminds me of an old stately home we used to visit and some of the old furniture in it.

a very long time ago wordsworth had these boxed letter dies and stamps that were just odd rectangles or square depending and at first glance this is what that made me think of. I love the depth of colors and the crackled into the backgrounds a lot Susie

Another amazing creation. This makes me think of a priceless antique oriental screen. Even though the flowers are not asian, the colors and bkg look like these beautiful works of art. Your creativity and design ability sure shine in this card. Just gorgeous.
