Welcome to the February Stamp TV CSS blog hop! If you arrived here from Linda's wonderful blog, you are on the right path, but if you didn't and would like to start at the beginning, you can hop back over to Stamp TV for the full list of participants.
Our hop today is an inspiration hop based on this fabulous photo that Karen selected for us.
Cool isn't it? It made me think of seaside villages in France or Italy, and I was inspired by the colors and rectangular shapes of the buildings and windows. So, here is my card.
A CAS card but I really like the way it turned out. I used the Gina K set called Botanicals for the flowers and colored them with markers to give it a bit of a watercolor look. The sentiment is from the Stamp TV kit called Enjoy the Sunshine. All the paper, ink and ribbon are from SU -- Apricot Appeal, Kiwi Kiss, Ballet Blue, and Groovy Guava.
Thanks for stopping by and as you hop along be sure you leave a comment on each blog post. Gina K has generously given a big grab bag of stamps for one lucky person. A comment will be randomly chosen from all the comments.
Now hop along to see what Karen has in store for you.
