Simon Says Stamp and Show Me...

...YOUR FAVORITE STAMP!

For other details, to see other wonderful creations, AND to enter your own, check out the Simon Says Stamp and Show Blog!

What can I say.... most of my favorite stamps are Studio 490.  I know most of you are shocked to hear this.
So, I decided to go with a card.
My current favorite background stamp is from the Art Colors Life stamp set.
I also decided to stick with Adirondack pigment inks for this card.  I used the "wrinkle free pigment" technique, lol, using Purple Twilight, Sailboat Blue and Clover. I stamped the background stamp with Denim pigment ink.  The flowers are from the same stamp set, as is the "Simplify".  The flowers are colored with Watermelon Adirondack pigment ink and overstamped with the text stamp from Love to Make Art
 
It's hard to see in the picture, but there are two layers to the flowers, separated by a little dot of grungeboard.
And, I decided to add a star with some vintage glass glitter in the upper left corner, just for a little something.
