Here comes Spring

With March everyone is thinking of the coming spring, and Mother's day if you're based in Britain!
I can't think of a better opportunity to create something classical, pretty and feminine in honour of both ...

I stamped one of the flower stem from the Inspired By Stamping Magnolias set and embossed it with detailed white powder on watercolour card.
I used watercolours and a standard brush to colour the blooms and stamped the "Spring" sentiment in black ink (same set). A pink pearl dots the i!

The pink card base has been embossed with the same Stitched square die used to cut the stamped image and the Mother's day sentiment is one from my collection.

Thanks for coming by,
I am entering the Allsorts, Stamping Sensations, Wow Embossing powders, Stamplorations Theme and Sketch, Stamplorations CAS, and The Artistic Stamper  challenges.
