Hello creative people, I hope you are doing well today. It's cold here in Ontario this week but early April can be fickle. I'm still thinking about Tulips and used stamps by Chocolate Baroque to create this card.
The main image is A Year of Stamping, Issue 2 - February (standard) which I embossed with brown and coloured with Tom Bow markers. The background piece is Walnut Distress Ink and water (on my craft mat) and stamped with a fragment from Texture Fragments.
I highlighted the tulips with Stickles which you can see better in the close up below:
Thanks for stopping by and happy crafting,
Shirley

A delightful card Shirley and I love the mix of brown with the pretty pink, blue and green, and the texture fragments add great interest to the background. I hope you enjoy the upcoming weekend. x

Using the brown border really makes your tulips pop. I hope you're keeping warm. It's cold down here too.
Oooh! Hi, Shirley! Beautiful frame. Reminds me of rich, damp soil perfect for gardening, and your tulips are done in amazingly earthy jewel tones. Truly flowers are the gems of nature! A gorgeous project. I imagine you thoroughly enjoyed putting this together! Hugs, de

You're definitely beating that cold off with this card, Shirley - fabulous piece, and so spring-like!
I like that you put the pink and turquoise flower into this brown frame, a very good contrast. Also I like the little bit of glitters on it. A very nice card. Hope you feel well.
Happy springtime Shirley.

Love the brown frame for these beautifully coloured tulips! In our garden the tulips are allmost open... The Art Specially Event was so great! I have been there all weekend and it was really a party! (not for my little moneybag though :) ) Did some great workshops/make and takes, but seeing everybody again was the best part...
Hope it will get warmer at your part of the world soon! Hugs, Gerrina
Wunderschön, ich liebe die Farben.
Und vor allem liebe ich diese Tulpen.
Leider lieben meine Katzen auch Tulpen :-)
Herzlichst Sophie
Your tulips are just beautiful Shirley! Happy weekend!
Oh wow--this should be framed, Shirley! Love the background & the beautiful tulips! Hope you get warmer temps soon!
Hello Dear Shirley
I am having a nice time catching up with you and your creativity this morning.
Stunning tulips!
I especially like the view into the open one.
