80s in Tulips by Lemon Shortbread Digital Stamps

Hi friends, and welcome to my post today.  A new challenge starts today on the Lemon Shortbread Challenge Blog:
http://lemonshortbreadchallenge.blogspot.com/

I chose the gorgeous "80s in Tulips" image by Lemon Shortbread Digital Stamps because tulips are one of the first flowers that bloom in the spring (my favourite season) and also because they are such beautiful, popular and classic flowers.


This fabulous image can be found here:

I used Copics and Polychromos to colour this beauty.  I love to make my own flowers so the tulips are handmade.

Thank you so much for visiting.  I wish you a happy day.  Hugs, Lori xx


Materials and Tools Used 

Tulips:    Heartfelt Creations "Tulip Time" cling stamp set
Foliage:  Creative Expressions "Evergreen Branches" die (Sue Wilson)

Twinkle Angel Nellie by Conie Fong

 Hello friends.  I cannot help but to think of what winter storms Uri and Viola have done to Texas and southeastern U.S.  Plus, Uri has continued to wreak havoc all the way up to Maine.  What is happening to our country?  So devastating.  

On a brighter note, I am sharing my DT card which I created for Conie Fong's current Facebook challenge.

This darling image is "Twinkle Angel Nellie", found here:

As always, I coloured her with my favourite mediums (Copics and  Polychromos).  The lovely flowers are from I Am Roses.  

I hope you stay safe.  Thank you for visiting.  It always brightens my day.  Hugs, Lori xx
