I had already written up my blog post for yesterday's card when I saw the What Will You Stamp? challenge:
They've circled back to a stamp set I own so I can play along again! They did Rooted in Nature a few weeks ago but alas, I just ordered that and I don't have it in my hot little hands yet. Anyway, I noticed that two people on their design team used the butterfly, but no one used the flower so I inked up the flower in my set. Plus I used the butterfly yesterday.
Here is the inspiration challenge from Just Add Ink:
I liked the soft colors and the flowers, so that's what I went with. I'm liking Petal Pink more than I thought I would; it's got a peachy undertone that I thought I wouldn't like, but it looks pretty good paired with Soft Sea Foam and Sahara Sand, don't you think?
There's a sketch this week on Sunday Stamps:
I thought this sketch worked well with the oversized flower.
And finally, I'm going to enter this one at the Paper Players since it's another birthday card:
