Hearts and Flowers (and Balloons!)


This little card was originally made for the challenge at Colour Create  but it fits some others too --ArtyGirlz, Wednesday Stamper, and Tanda Teaser

I used a large script stamp to stamp in two colours on blue paper and then punched out lots of little hearts and balloons which I used to make two flowers, some leaves, and a butterfly. I think it fits all the challenges.

    I LOVE that colour to wear, but don't use it in cards often, this is a lovely little piece.
