Spring Blossoms

Got some new stamps today, and I've been playing a bit. The bottom half is stamped in clear ink and embossed with pale pink embossing powder on vellum. The top is tattered rose Distress ink on peachy-pink cardstock. The blossom images were sent to me by Judy; I colored them to match and cut them out.

Also entering this into the Caardvark's Challenge, to use lace. Mine isn't real, but I hope it still qualifies!

Supplies: Hero Arts S5341 Lace Background, CL380 Truly Appreciated, unknown flower stamp
