BEAUTIFUL TULIPS!!

Good morning all!!
What a beautiful day ..... just a quick posting this morning as I have the dreaded housework to do :( .
I made this card, as usual lol, to fit with a few challenges, but it was a brilliant excuse to use this stamp I bought a few weeks ago. I absolute loooooovvvvveeeee Tulips!!!! They are, without a doubt, my favourite flower and when they are in season you can always find them in my home. As the stamp is quite filled in it was a bit of a challenge to colour - but I stamped with memento London Fog to give it a softer feel and them just using greens and pinks highlighted it - I went over bits of it with glossy accents but unfortunately the picture doesn't show it too well. The sentiment is off of a My Sentiments Exactly stamp set and I thought it just about said it all !!
The challenges I am entering are :

Hope you like it and thanks for looking :o)
Lots of Love

  9. Gorgeous, love the way you are combining paterns and co-ordinate embellies. Stunning colouring.
    btw, if you decide to get derwent inktense set, it's worth it to get their blender and burnisher pen sets as well (those are basically pigmentless pencils, great for smoothing and blending colours). They'll work wit Sansador as well though. AND water!!! Only thing I wish is that they had more than 76 colours.
