This is for Gracie's red challenge. When I did this I was channeling the look of red and white embroidery. I just love the combo. I used 2 bg stamps for this...the gingham one and then to frame it one of favorite bg stamps that is a small dot. I hand drew the flowers in white on red cardstock and then fussy cut. I added some white leaves outlined in red, the tag and that's it.

Wow, Polly, I love those hand drawn white flowers on the red and your backgrounds are fabulous, too! The adorable little tag is the perfect finishing touch for your beautiful red card!

I thought your bg stamps were paper. You have stamped these to perfection. I always struggle with getting a crisp image with large bg stamps. All the details make this a wonderful card.

Anything gingham always draws me in and I’m amazed to learn you made this bg with a stamp - excellent!. Nice hand-drawn flowers, too, and the way you arranged them over the gingham. Great card!

The pink and red makes me think of Valentine's. This is beautiful, lovely flowers and I always love checkered bg!!
