I used an older but my favourite stamp set from Paper Smooches called Botanicals 2 to make my card for the challenge.

I took the colours from the photo inspiration. And I used distress oxide inks to stamped the images from Botanicals 2 stamp set. The colours I used are Wilted Violet, Wild Honey, Fozzilised Amber, Vintage Photo, Peeled Paint and Spiced Marmalade. I sponged distress oxide ink Salty Ocean on the bottom of the card front to add a bit of colour to make the sentiment pop. The sentiment is from Simon Says Stamp Handlettered Encouragement stamp set stamped using Versafine Onyx Black ink. The green dots are from Simon Says Stamp Let Us Rejoice stamp set. I just added glossy accents randomly as dew drops. Love the rich colours and distress oxide inks are awesome to stamp with.

So now it’s YOUR turn.  Happy Crafting
