I had to take a few liberties, as I have none of these colours! I used the three closest shades I could, Gumball Green, Rose Red and Pistachio Pudding. Actually, whilst I would never have put them together I really like this combination, especially for florals.
I really took my courage in both hands and made a one layer card and so would like to enter it for the challenge at CAS On Sunday
First I stamped the tulip out
One in the darker green, using my Stamp-A-Ma-Jig to get them lined up perfectly.
Then I over stamped the flower heads, using a stamp from Work Of Art and the Rose Red. I used another stamp from the same set for the stems, bending it very slightly.
Nest I drew a border in a fine line black pen and stamped on most most modern birthday sentiment.
My biggest challenge on these types of card is keeping away the smudges...think I managed this time.
This such a clever card and I adore those sketchy looking tulips. So creative to have the vision to achieve this look - just fabulous!
