Mini-slimline Garden

Hi there!  I have flowers today.  These Rubbernecker leaves and the flower are the same I used on this card for the subtle background.  The leaves have been in my collection for a long time but it was a first time use for the flower, and before I put it away I felt it should have another go.  One leaf stamp and one flower stamp gave me a nice little garden.



I inked the rubber directly with Tombow markers and then stamped on Neenah 110 lb cardstock.  I did not mist, but the markers gave a somewhat watercolor effect.  This one layer mini-slimline card is 3 1/2" x 6".  Easy and quick!

No challenges today.  Just me stamping and wishing you a happy day.  Take care!


Stamps:  Rubbernecker Silhouette Flower #4, Rubbernecker Leaves (name?), Rubbernecker Smiles and Thinks of You sentiment  Paper:  Neenah Classic Crest Super Smooth Solar White 110 lb  Ink:  Tombow markers, Memento Tuxedo Black

  1. Oh my goodness Leslie, this is gorgeous! Love how you composed this, and love the mini slimline size! Beautiful colours of green, with just that pop of colour for the coneflowers. So delightful to see this morning, just heading out to work (5:50 am), just thought I would check my Feedly before I do, and so glad I did. This certainly makes me smile! Have a wonderful day, and so glad to see another wonderful creation from you. Love when you create my friend! Take care, hugs,

  9. such beautiful flowers, love that cone flower and what looks like a poppy seed head ♥
    Hope you and the furbabies are good. Our male was diagnosed with Golden Retriever pigmentary uveitis, it's a genetic disease (his father was diagnosed 2 years ago) which is a glaucoma in goldens. Luckily he has been diagnosed early by being in contact with the breeder and is on steroid drops for his eyes. Late diagnosis can mean they are in a lot of pain with the pressure in the eyes. So he's a happy 8 and a half year old that is so good having is eye drops BID ♥
