Hi! This card was made for today's Inspiration Challenge a distressed Sage Shadow desk with a Summer Sun vase filled with Real Red Flowers. It can be found here: Forums at Splitcoaststampers
I took one look and decided to go with flowers and Sage Shadow paper...I had this yummy piece of K&Co. designer paper and went to town! (Of course, this is another VERY late night for me! LOL! I have only slept a little over 4 hours since Tuesday morning! Ever have a MEGA day like that? I wish I hadn't! LOL!)
All stamps are from Innovative Stamp Creations. I stamped the big flower 3 times. I stamped it in Really Rust on Summer Sun and filled in with markers. I stamped the Real Red with Chocolate Chip to get that "shabby" look. Then I stamped it on Whisper White in Really Rust and cut out the center and used daubers and markers to color it. I had cut out the flowers, but they were really "raged" so I used a Marvy GIGA scallop and punched them, instead.(This gave them a more uniform look.)
The butterfly was stamped on Whisper White with Mellow Moss and colored with markers.
The border was stamped in Really Rust. I added Handsome Hunter and Signo Pen dots.
