I am just SOO excited about this stamp!! LOVE IT!! It's a new stamp from SU! called, "On The Grow." I also used some other new goodies from SU! The "bordered" edge of my middle panel is not a border punch. It was created using a new doily punch made by SU! I wasn't too sure about those new doily punches, but now I LOVE them! :o)
Back to the stamp I used. I absolutely LOVE Vespa's! I think they are just so neat! When I was in Italy, I saw them everywhere! When my father came to this country from Italy, he had a red Vespa! I'm sure you will see a RED Vespa card from me soon!
I designed this Vespa with the thought of me possibly owning one of my own someday! IF I ever DID get a Vespa, I know I'd want it in this color! Maybe even incorporate some houndstooth, too?? I know, I'm getting ahead of myself here.
Anyways, thank you Roxie for another FABULOUS sketch!! I had fun playing! Oh, and as you can see, I flipped the sketch!

Houndstooth always reminds me of a hooded cape/poncho my mother made me when I was about five or six. And I see several Vespas just like this around town - there's even one this colour sometimes parked at the other end of the street where I work - minus the flowers. As always, a gorgeous card.

Everything about this is simply DELIGHTFUL!!! I love that 'little extra' color in there from the flowers.

Hope you get your Vespa, Jenna. Your card is wonderful and I love your creative use of the doily punch...I would have thought it was a straight-edge punch, you did it so perfectly.
