Most of the time when I think of flowers I think of lots of beautiful colors. But every once in awhile, especially with vintage images, the image with no coloring can speak all for itself.

Here’s a very quick card with no coloring. The image was stamped several times and some distressing was added by sponging all around the image panel. A little paper piercing across the top and a simple popped up bee was added for some interest.

I have been trying to use some of my older stamp sets that have seen very little (if any) ink. This set is from 2018! It feels so good to pull out these stamps and USE THEM! It’s probably just relieving a guilty conscience. ![]()
