Trust in your potential...

I had a quick chance to craft today when all 3 kiddos napped at the same time.  I was browsing through some challenge blogs and saw 2 different photos to inspire this card.
 
This pretty flower at Inspired By challenges had me grabbing for my Unity Donna Poppy stamp set.
 

 
 
And the Curtain Call Inspiration Challenge: Pretty and Pink had me reaching for my pink and gold gelatos to color my stamp.



I stamped the outline stamp in blank ink and then colored the flower stamp with my gelatos, spritzed with water and stamped over the outline stamp.  I watercolored the stem freehand and then stamped the sentiment (an Itty Bitty by Unity Stamp Co).  It didn't look complete yet so I used some gold glimmer mist and sprayed 2 of the corners. 

It is FUN to craft in the afternoon while the sun is shining and the kids are sleeping!  I am entering this into both the Inspired By Challenge #113 and the Curtain Call Pink and Pretty challenge.
