I ended up choosing one of the images in the set called Simply Camellias.
I stamped the image on cougar white 100lb card stock using black memento. I then coloured the image using prismacolour pencils and blended with gamsol.
My good friend Nancy surprised me one day at work by sending over a 6x6 paper pad from Prima called Butterfly collection. OMG if you know me I love paper and especially since this is 'nature' based. The papers are to die for in this collection. I knew I wanted to use it with this image. After colouring I cut it our using a circle die using the out of the box technique so I could allow the leave to spill outside of the circle edge. I layered this onto a new die set called circle delight, and delightful this is!. For the scalloped edge on the prima paper I used scallop borders two.
To finish off I added the sentiment stamped in black versafine, silk taupe bow, glitter on the flower and a tiny wooded heart. I just love how this all came together. The colours are a bit softer in real - so pretty.
