Mark's Finest Papers


For my card sample I used the daffodil bundle from this fabulous new set. I stamped image on watercolor paper and then heat embossed it. I used some watercolor crayons to color the daffodils. I saw daffodils this color in a gardening magazine my husband receives. They were a white flower with pink centers. Hence my color choices.

I used a square Spellbinders die and layered some pink designer paper over that. Added some pink satin ribbon and some pleated green over that. Added a few pearls to complete my card.

Now onto the next stop in this hope-it's MariLynn's blog. See you back here tomorrow.
