A quickie..

Here's a quickie card that made as a make up for Leslie's Walk In My Garden Swap. Most likely, I was being stupid and forgot to make them and send them- funny thing is I crossed it off my list, and deleted all relating email- basically I've lost my mind. For this card I used a new set and some new cardstock. I recently acquired the Garden Whimsey set from SU, which I loved from looking at the samples in the cattie. This card is cased from SCS galleries- I do not know who the orignal stamper was. The tulip is stamped on watercolor paper using SU Classic Inks in Cameo Coral and Old Olive. After stamping, I "smudged" the ink a little to make it look like it was watercolored. The sentiment is also stamped in Old Olive. For the background, I used Chatterbox DP and Cameo Coral Cardstock. The Cameo Coral CS is embossed with an Cuttlebug folder- Im not sure of the name, but its the one of the new ones with all the fancy flowers on it. Also on the tulip panel, I added "life's too short" on the bottome corner. Its stamped in Cameo Coral ink and punched out with the Word Window punch. For a quickie card, this sure did turn out well. Enjoy!
