Stampendous has a line of stamps called Scenic Serenity. They're FABULOUS! There's the Scenic Poppy, Villa, Lavender, Grapes, Olives and Sunflower.
This is the Scenic Sunflower image stamped on Shimmery White paper and colored with Prismacolor Pencils. I put two layers of Ultra Thick Embossing Powder over the image, and then I cracked it.
The sunflower photo I posted earlier reminded me of this stamp, so I made some time to get it inky!
The sentiment on the side is by Inkadinkado and reads "a true friend is the rarest of all blessings. - La Rochefoucauld". I was so happy to find this stamp...it's a wonderful sentiment for so many cards.
The paper is new, from the EK Success line called Classic K Bailey. The paper is printed as double-sided sheets, and comes lots of beautiful coordinating prints. I like the rich coppery color of this piece matched with the image and the coppery colored ribbon by May Arts. I stitched on the copper charm, and brushed a fine dusting of copper PearlEx over the card for lots of shimmer! Can't go wrong with shimmer! =)
Thanx for being a master enabler for me, along with a constant source of inspiration!
later, alligator!

Lovely. You do such nice work. I definitely like the copper colors w this. Copper is starting to become one of my favorite colors. I seem to be picking up a lot of copper colored things, and the Copper PearlEx is awesome.
