Hi, can you believe it's Thursday already, where did the week go! Tonight, we are meeting my best friend from my childhood, whom I also worked with for 30 years at a new German Restaurant for dinner. The menu sounds delish and we are anxious to try it.
Today's card is for the challenge at Penny Black and Friends Saturday Challenge #196, and it's a
case it challenge. I have used the colors in the example and flowers.
My Card Recipe
Stamp - Penny Black, Single Iris, stamped several times
I used Marvey brush markers to color right on the stamp
Card stock - Green is pearlized by ColorBox
Rhinestones - Kaiser
After I stamped the Iris flowers, I sponged on Versamark Watermark ink (clear)
right from the pad, then heat embossed with Powder Keg Sparkling Ice embossing powder
The bird is a new to me punch from Stampin Up
Gingham Bow from my Stash
Hope you are enjoying your Thursday. Thanks for stopping by. Until later...........

Oh my goodness Sue-I think this is outstanding. It looks hand painted-hard to believe it is a stamp. What a gorgeous beauty. I hope you dinner was wonderful and you shared some good times with your friend. Love that "Springtime at the Falls" picture for your blog header.
