Classic vines stamp and die from Heartfelt Creations.
to get these stunning stamps and dies click on the Heartfelt icon on the side panel.
I also used the Elizabeth Crafts Happy Frame.
for the background I used white linen paper scored down at random inches and half inches.
I then used distress ink pad's and swiped down the page , then when dry I dry brushed some white gesso here and there. 
I arranged flowers and vines and added some water droplets.
I really liked the way this background lent it self so well with the blue Dogwood's.

For this card I have used.
I stamped the image with Memento ink  and  coloured in with Faber Castell pencils.
Then I stamped the image again and coloured in only the flower and then fussy cut it out to layer onto the whole image .
I added some Crystal lacquer in  the middle and added some drops on the petals to look like rain drops and added some prills in the middle .
 Enjoy the Blog hop to win the voucher like comment on each blog
