S & S Challenge #201

Good Sunday morning to you all.  Hope your weekend is going well so far.  I woke up to find that over at the  Stars & Stamps blog they were showcasing one of my past cards as a sample for this week's challenge.  I am very honored - thank you Marlene.  So here is a new card I made using this sketch.




I went back a ways in my stamps and pulled out a couple of  retired stamps from SU!.  I colored the flower with Copics and embossed the sentiment with Detail Silver embossing powder.  The border punch is from SU! as are the papers.  That will do it for me today.  Thank you so much for stopping by.  Wishing you all a fun day.

That tiny mouse found himself a real nice place to curl up and take a snooze :) I love your card today too with that beautiful bloom that's colored so well!
