Just Us Girls #286...Photo Inspiration Week

Hey everyone,

 

Today's card was created for this week's Just Us Girls challenge.  This week is Photo Challenge Week:

 

                                      

 

I recently purchased some goodies online, and I just had to break them in.  I'm always on the lookout for flower stamps so I can use my Copic markers (plus it's something I can do during my lunch hour at work).  :)

 

My card:

  

 

I was inspired by all the beautiful flowers from the picture above.  When I was growing up, my mom love to decorate the living room with fresh flowers she would hand pick from our garden.  Even though she is no longer with me, her inspiration lives on.

 

Card Recipe:

 

Stamps: Stampendous Bowl Bouquet, SU! Wonderful Mother

Paper: Blending Card by X-Press It

Ink: Memento Black, Copic markers

Accessories: Pretty in Pink ribbon,
