Bring on the Bling

I don't normally stamp straight on to my card blank, but, I thought, what's the worst that can happen? If it all goes pear shaped I could just layer over it!

I picked up a set of these stamps, by pergamano, at my local crafty shop. Hadn't seen them before but I likey!

I coloured the image with watercolours and punched out the flowers and leaves. Finishing off with little gems means it fits the challenge over on Sir Stampalot....bring on the bling.

Liz, this is stunning! It's so effective stamped straight onto the card. The white background highlights the beautifully coloured image.

Hi Liz

This is just gorgeous, so simple yet so elegant. You have got the placement, colours, everything just right.

I'm like you I rarely stamp onto the card itself other for backgrounds, but this makes me think I need to give it a go.

Thank you so much for joining us at Stampalot Challenge this month and good luck.
