Tulip cards

Today's cards were largely inspired by a moodboard challenge at StampNation, featuring lots of tulips in bright colours. This inspired me to dig out this tulip stamp that had never before seen ink (probably because it was from an unmounted rubber stamp set), and then I thought I might just as well stamp it multiple times. I changed up the orientation, colours and details for some variation. I watercoloured all of my images using CP inks.

First up, I have the pink versions.


For my landscape card, I created a sentiment strip using the Tiny words set by Simon Says Stamp and cut it up before adhering it to the left of my image. 


For my portrait card, I added some jute twine and a tiny tag.


I kept things even simpler for my purple version by only adhering a few sparkly gems.


I'm linking up my first (landscape) pink card at:

I'm linking up my second (portrait) pink card at:

    Pleased you dog out that Tulip stamps Marianne as it's really pretty and looks lovely in both colourways although I think the pink one just has the edge for me.

    Thanks so much for joining in with our 'Pretty in Pink' theme at Penny Black and More challenge.
