I love these stamps from Sarah Kay, they are so innocent and pure in heart kind of feeling stamps. It doesn't matter what colour you choose they always colour beautifully and blend in with whatever design you think of...

I use a selection of papers from an Artylicious CD Rom called Filigree Fusion, the backing papers on this disk are absolutely gorgeous and if like me you like paisley designs then this is a great source. I printed them on a pearlescent paper the effects are really nice.

I have distressed all the edges of my papers and then added a tiny touch of Stickles. The stamp I coloured in using a variety of distressing inks and Pro-Markers. The flowers I made myself using two different sizes of punch, the smaller of the two I used my main backing paper, I then made vein markings before distressing the edges. I slightly curved the outer edges and stickled them before they were joined together. The button in the middle is a silk embroidered button that I have had for ages. The ribbon I buy from my local market.

Hope you like my creation, thanks for looking.
