Altenew May Challenge

I recently made a card using the Altenew Lotus stamp and I love it so much I recreated a similar one for the Altenew May Challenge.
The flowers and leaves were colored with Zigs on Bristol and die cut so I could come up with an arrangement I liked.  Before adhering them, I used a Clarity brush to add a little Tumbled Glass, going darker on the bottom.  The stems on the right are stamped directly on the card base but the other one is popped up with the tiniest bit of foam tape to be on the level of the popped up leaf.  Here's the inspiration for my card.

We're off to my granddaughter Anneka's graduation today.  Her Mom posted a video on FaceBook of her singing at the Send Off to Seniors assembly.  It almost made me cry.  I probably would have if I'd seen her in person. She is such a talented young lady.

I hope you have a wonderful day and thanks for dropping by.
