Hello everyone: With Mom's Day approaching, I wanted to add one more card for my stash so, here's this one, hope you like it.
I took my cue from the RETRO RUBBER beautiful inspiration picture so I went looking for these two images from Impression Obsession that fitted this theme perfectly. The vase on the right is called "Charming Gardens" (2008), the one on the left it's called "Pansies" (2011). I stamped them on watercolor paper with Stazon black ink and colored with SU markers and a bit of Prismacolor pencils for added detail.
I made a cut on either side of the small vase with an Exacto knife and slid through a piece of pink organza ribbon and taped it in the back. The little round tag was on my box of leftover stuff so I tied it with twine to the ribbon, I like how it looks perfectly sized for this vase.

This is how the INSIDE of my card looks like.
I have this very old Fiskars edge punch and I used it to punch a little detail on the panel, I think the sentiment is from Stampendous but I'm not really sure, it's plain rubber with no label, and the little branch with the nest from IO.
Please join my teammates' and me in the RETRO RUBBER gallery, please remember to use at least one rubber stamp older than a year, if you can provide the approximate date when you purchased it, we would love it.
Please read our rules, they are few but important and, most of all, have fun creating.
I'm playing along with the following challenges.
#162 "Anything Goes/Flowers"
Challenge #9 "Anything Goes in Mainly Pink"
"Use Ink"
#76 "Pastels"
#76 "Flowers"
Thank you for stopping by, your comments always make my day.
Hugs.
