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.

These elements may be old school, but they still create a great look with your talented designing. This is a great card, Polly! I could really use a day with a book on that swing!

Oh, this is so pretty! Love your coloring on the image, and those vellum flowers!
