For this card I used some old supplies I've had for ....well, many years.....I used an Impression Obsession stamp that I haven't used in a very long time, I made flowers with vellum (which I also haven't done much with in years), and I topped off the flowers with a pearl pen. It's sort of like liquid pearls but it must have a bigger nozzle so the dots come out a big bigger. This is going out to Kim (crazykim) in New Zealand who makes sock monkeys and gives the monkeys and also proceeds to children's hospitals.

Polly, those vellum flowers are so pretty. They caught my eye straight away after the lovely relaxing looking seat. And then I saw the lacy borders - you are so good at using those. I agree, those pearl pens are a big "chunkier" - I have a couple. I love the springtime feel this card has.

Lots of old school elements here! Border punches, vellum, sweet stamp! Perfect card for this challenge. I have a swing on my screened porch that I love to sit on, but it always makes me sleepy.

I love that inviting bench swing. Glad it got to see some ink today. Great card, Polly.
