I stamped the background of this card with a stamp called Diamond Deco Silhouette (large) from Repeat Impressions. You can find it on this page. I used Always Artichoke and Elegant Eggplant from Stampin' Up! The lighter ones are a second stamping - stamped without reinking. The flowers are a Lupine stamp, also from Repeat Impressions, available here. The ovals are cut with Nestabilities. The sentiment is from Papertrey Ink. Edited to add: I forgot to say how I colored the lupine. I didn't have the right color green Copic, so first I watercolored the leaves with Always Artichoke and then I used a Copic over that. The flowers are colored with Copics.
Thanks so much for stopping by, and I hope you'll come back and visit again soon!
