Random stampings

I find that the stamp set I reach for most will change in fits and starts ... one day it's Baroque Motifs (and I have to force myself to try other stamp sets), then it's something else. Today it's Bodacious Bouquet, an oldie but goodie. If you're like me and have more than enough flower stamps (but is that ever true?), this one is still a handy one to have, as it's all flowers, all the time *g*.

This card was originally made for a birthday my daughter went to, and I liked it so much it was recreated a couple of times in different combinations. If only you could see how glittery the main flower is; sadly the scan just can't show that.

The frame around the "happy birthday" panel was drawn by hand, which explains why it's a little odd ... I just can't get my brain around the whole "freehand" concept *g* - I keep wanting to reach for a ruler to make sure it's straight.
