How many floral images do you have? I have no clue how many I have, I just know I am drawn to them and have to remind myself that I have plenty of flower stamps when I see another I like. I also like floral printer paper and flower embellishments, so the Victorine Originals challenge #33, with the theme of '"flowers" seems like it was made for me.
I started with floral paper for the base card. For the central image, I inked up the flower with Colorbox Chalk ink called Cadmium Yellow and stamped it off once on scrap paper before
stamping it, so I got a lighter image. I overstamped with the sentiment in black Memento ink
and sponged the edges around it with a greenish color called Bamboo. All the papers are from a Making Memories stack called Sydney.
For the embellishment, I used two layers of gauzy flowers under
the paper flower both to make it fluffier and so the green of the gauze would be evident. They are attached with a mini brad.
