Bought a New Stamp Set...

Hi! I fell in love with a stamp set I saw online, and accidentally bought it... You know how it is... It arrived a few days ago, and it's just gorgeous. I love these flowers. There's a challenge at Sweet Stampin', called 'Your Favourite Stamp'. This is pretty hard for me, because I am very fickle. Generally, the last stamp I bought is my new favourite stamp :-s  So here's a card, using my new favourite stamp!

The stamp is of the two daisies together, but I wanted to separate them, inspired by the current Muse challenge, so I had to cut them out. I really really hate fussy cutting, as I am pretty rubbish at it, and it's annoying, and the fiddly bits always make the card bend, but I got on with it with minimal grumbling, and I love the result. I coloured them with inks and a water brush, and added sparkle to the flowers with a Wink of Stella pen.




I'm entering this one in the following challenges:

Muse:
CAS Colours & Sketches:
Sweet Stampin': 'Your Favourite Stamp'



Ingredients:
Leonie Pujol stamp set: 'Everlasting Love'
Adirondack Ink: Bottle
Stampin' Up! Inks: Marina Mist, Perfect Plum
A Wink of Stella pen: Clear
