Hello sweet bloggers,
This is a card I made this morning after really pushing myself. The image is a stamp from Hampton Art and it has been coloured with water colour pencils. The printed paper was won two years ago in Terry's blog candy. The sponging on the paper below the image was done by Zeenya (my older one) in the good old days when she used to love card making. The flowers are from my stash as is the ribbon. The leaf at the bottom left is a pressed leaf which has sentimental value as I picked it up while walking in a park in France !!! I have to add that I do like this card and the colours on it.
I am going to enter this in the following challenges:
http://addicted-to-stamps-challenge.blogspot.co.uk/ - bring on spring (lots of flowers)
http://challenges4everybody.blogspot.co.uk/ - anything goes

Love,
Monica

Shame that kids grow out of cardmaking with their mums, I do live in hope that my daughter may return to it in about ten years. :-) I liked how this card came together. Lots of memories for you
Gosh, Monica, this is gorgeous! (the shading looks great!) I like the designer paper and the image is absolutely PERFECT! I have not seen it before. So glad you shared it. That "French" leaf certainly maintained its color! A happy unique card for sure! hugs, de

This is so gorgeous... love the soft colors of the papers along with your pear image... beautiful flowers!!! I saw your card on Make It Monday.
What a beautiful card, the coloring is so soft and gentle, works wonderfully for the sentiment. I also love that you included something so dear to you in the pressed leaf, isn't it wonderful to have a craft that can be so heartfelt? Thank you for sharing it with us at Opus Gluei, it's perfect (or should that be pear-fect? LOL). I'm sorry I didn't comment sooner, I've had ongoing computer issues...argh...
