The CLASSroom Flower Parade

Well, I decided to dust off my blog and post something today. WhooHoo! I got a newsletter email yesterday from Ellen Hudson with an invitation to join the flower parade they are having on the Classroom blog and decided this is the perfect time to post a new card. And without further ado, here it is:
Stamp is by Penny Black. I colored the flowers in with colored pencil and gamsol. Overstamped image with SU's Linen background in Ranger antique linen distress ink and distressed al edges with Vintage photo distress ink. Script background by SU, also stamped in antique linen distress ink. Added a black mat behind the focal image and some plaid ribbon and black buttons.
I really like how it turned out.
Thanks for looking!
