Lovely Lilacs

Somehow....

I always find my way back to creating cards with floral images.

Our Daily Bread Designs has a beautiful collection of stamps 

with single flower images...

I have most of them...

and use them often...

But..I've never used the Lilac stamp...

and thought that NOW was the time to ink it up.

I stamped the image onto ivory linen textured card stock

and colored it with Copic markers.

I chose a print that went well with the colored image

The scalloped frame and image mat were crated with deep purple metallic card stock.

I hand cut the sentiment banner...and matted it.

The frame and sentiment were positioned with foam dimensionals

The Happy Birthday stamp is from Stampin Up's And Many More stamp set

The foam dimensionals give a nice left to the scalloped frame

for a little bit of shadow box look

I've always loved purple, green and ivory together....

So it's no surprise that I chose a green print to go with lilacs.

If you visit my blog regularly...you may have seen the crocus cards that I shared recently.

That image is also from Our Daily Bread Designs.

Have a wonderful Wednesday, my crafty and creative friends!
