Cloud WPlus9 March Blog Hop Challenge

Today I'm playing along with the Cloud WPlus9 Blog Hop March Challenge.  Check out this gorgeous inspiration photo - I love all the color in the beautiful flowers and the soft watercolor background.  I immediately went searching for a flower stamp and stopped at this beauty in the Very Vintage Greetings set. At first I stamped it in brown and was going to color it but my goodness!  It is so pretty it doesn't need to be colored.  I played around with stamping them in a pattern that was flattering to my eye and then added some blue green foliage from Woodgrain Silhouette Additions.   To get a bit of the hot pink in the background I added a few flourishes from Very Vintage Florals.  
 
I hope you have some time to play along this weekend.  You can get all the details here.

  1. Love how you used three different colors for the flowers--so pretty! The florals & soft colors make such a lovely sympathy card. I have quite a few WPlus9 sets but hardly any flowers. I tried a couple of things this morning but still haven't gotten a card done. Good thing we have three days!!
