Ohhhh, I'm REALLY happy how this card came out!!! I don't often pat myself on the back for the cards I make, but I really like this one. This is a Hero Arts Cling Stamp called "Poppy Background". I've used it on a few cards, but I wanted to do something different. I went on the Hero Arts site and saw THIS card by Nancy Taylor. Her coloring inspired me.
I decided to emboss the background, which DOES make it harder to color in with prisma pencils (you can't use gamsol or it will break down the embossing) - but I took my time and used my blender pencil. I used a large EK Success scallop punch and a few flower brads that I had and layered it all on kraft cardstock.

Oh, this one is so pretty I can see why you love it so much and hey we need to pat ourselves on our back! You can tell you took a lot of time, just beautiful. Have a great weekend.
Just beautiful Maria! The coloring is great and does look like you had to have a lot of patience with that. But it paid off since it's just gorgeous.

Your flowers are colored so beautifully Maria! I have this stamp and have been looking for ideas - thanks for the inspiration!
Wow, wow, wow!! That embossing makes such a stunning background for those beautiful flowers! Great coloring job, even if you couldn't use your gamsol!
