Hey everyone Hope your having a good February. It’s reminder time already at The Flower Challenge. Here is my entry using a brand new die to me from Altenew: Leafy Frame and one of my newer floral stamp sets by neat and tangled. I ink smooshed my stacked frame with distress ink – Victorian velvet and spun sugar. I used the same colours on my watercolour background. The sentiment from neat and tangled is stamped in archival black ink. I hope you will check out the inspiration from the rest of the design team and join in with us this month.
