Altenew April Inspiration Challenge

I've been playing with my Altenew stamps lately and what better place to show them off than at the Altenew Inspiration Challenge.  This is a new challenge to me but I'll be back again.



The flowers are from Vintage Flowers stamped in Altenew Ink with leaves from Peony Bouquet.  I put them on a kraft background that has been embossed with a mosaic ef.  Sentiments are often a bugaboo for me but I think using the SSS word die and accompanying sentiment works fine for this layout.

It's a rather gloomy day today so I think some crafting will perk me up.   How about you?

That embossed background looks gorgeous with the pretty flowers and the sentiment. It's almost got a sheen to it, at least on my screen. This is so pretty. What a wonderful card. Have a great weekend. Bev

That texture-y background captures the inspiration background brilliantly, Bobby ... that lovely cascade of blue hued blooms is so lovely against it! Hugs, Anita :)
