A Passion for Papertrey - Pretty Petals

Happy Thursday! Today I just played with new stamps. I should have worked on the PC call, but I played. That's what I like best! No sketch, no given colors, nothing but new stamps to inspire me! This is my result and it happens to fit the current "Pretty Petals" Challenge on "A Passion for Papertrey":



All supplies are Papertrey Ink, except for the pearls (Prima Marketing). I had so much fun creating this. Sigh. I am planning to plant sweet peas in our garden. Just have to figure out a good way to give them growth support.

Hope you all have a wonderful day! I am sorry I am not around that much, but I enjoy every minute outside with my little girl! Don't feel obliged to leave comments - I love you just the same :) Sending sunshine your way!

Hugs,
Vanessa

Beautiful, Vanessa! I love sweet peas, but it's too humid where I live for them to grow.....so I really enjoyed looking at yours!

I just planted my sweet peas today - I made a 4 way pyramid out of bamboo canes and tied them together at the top. let me know if you'd like a photo. :)
Hope you had a wonderful weekend.
