Love Blossoms Blog Hop

Welcome to the Love Blossoms Blog Hop. You should have come from Miss Carrie's blog.

The instant CTMH came out with this promotion, those stamps were in my cart. I love the flowers; I love the sayings. Getting both together...oh yeah! When they arrived I couldn't stop playing, and a good thing too. My writing partner and I were runners up in the prestigious Spur Awards for Book 2 of our Montana Brides Inspirational Romance series. As I did last year when we won, I'm sending cards to both my writing partner and our editor to celebrate.

I decided to do white on white embossing over watercolor paper and then paint using ink squeezed into the lid of stamp pads. (You have to squeeze pretty hard or, alternately, you can use re-inker.)

Here's the first card I made:
