I stamped the California poppies in Antique Linen Distress Ink then painted them with Spiced Marmalade, Peeled Paint and a touch of Forest Moss. I'm loving no-line colouring this week ;)

I'm entering my card into Simon Says Wednesday Challenge, Summer. What speaks more of summer than gorgeous vibrant flowers?
A show-stopping, knock-out, breath-taken-away gorgeous card! Those flowers are stunning! If I weren't having a 'separation' from my distress inks, I'd give the no line colouring a try. Not quite ready to head back that way, but wow...you're sure providing incentive! I'm excited to receive my set of these stamps; they're lovely!
