More of Ruth's stamps

Why is it I have so much inspiration now when I'm about to go back to school? I managed another play using Ruth Hamilton's Pick of the Bunch stamps from Tonic studios. These stamps are from the chrysanthemum set and the Rudbeckia set. I used resist technique to make the background and watercoloured the flower with the summer set of distress inks. The swirly die is from Marianne designs. It isn't the best watercolouring. I thought I would try the back of some pearlised card, but it obviously wasn't the right sort of pearlised card!
Thanks for looking!

  3. The background is a beauty & I love the way you used the navy ribbon with the other blues. Super the way your little die-cut flowers echo the colouring of your image.

  4. Snap!! I haven't had any inspiration at all and suddenly it's back! Maybe we need the stress of work (even the thought of it, lol!) to get us going!

    Fabulous card Sally; love the background you've made which is perfect with Ruth's lovely stamp.
