Iwona is using A Year of Flowers 2 stamp set. Iwona is a landscape artist and loves all kinds of flowers. She thinks it would be impossible to pick one favorite flower. However, for her card she did need to narrow down the choices. She chose the Morning Glory because it is one of her many favorites. With today’s challenge to use flowers, Flourishes definitely offers many gorgeous floral images to choose from. Iwona watercolored the Morning Glories. She added Inkssentials White gel for highlighting. She stamped her image on a textured paper that makes the image look like it was colored on canvas. I love that effect! Iwona added some sewing to the edges and added touches of lavendar pearls to the center of the flowers. She finished her gorgeous card with a lush burgandy satin bow! Beautifully done, Iwona! Please check out Iwona’s blog for more card details!

I LOVE the stamped images for those of us without an avatar! Mine was purple, my favorite color! Very smart, ladies, filling that space with stamps! Good for you!
Purple is also the color of majesty…which reminds me…
