Featured Stamper

Today's featured stamper on SCS is minnidr (Diane). I had not seen Diane's creations before, so it was nice to be able to acquaint myself with her gallery. I chose to case her beautiful Smell the Roses card.

And here's my card with the required challenge changes:



I am also submitting this for the Copic Creations Challenge #8 on their blog to color botanicals. I love the Year of Flowers stamp set designed by Melanie Muenchinger (distributed by Gina K). I colored my tulips with Copic markers R11, R20, R32, R35, and R37. The leaves were colored with Copic markers YG00, YG03, and YG06. The ladybugs on the inside of the card were colored with Copic marker R29.

I have a few more cards I have to make today, so I'll keep this post short for now. Thanks for stopping by and have a blessed Sunday!

Stamps: A Year of Flowers (Gina K)
Cardstock: Black, White, Gina K Pure Luxury White, dp
Ink: Tuxedo Memento Black
Accessories: Copic markers, black organdy ribbon, MS picket fence border punch, Cuttlebug distressed embossing folder, dimensionals

This is so striking Charlene. I love the color combo. Black always makes any color just pop. What a beautiful layout and I like the punched edges at the bottom. I need to keep practicing my copics. Super job.
