I saw that article and wanted desperately to re-create it. The cool thing is that the stamper I bought the Botanicals set off on Ebay is still my online friend today - 9 years later! Seeing that article again has brought all that back so thank you for posting it! BTW, love your card and the colors you've showcased too!Karrenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02282186745582708906noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-709379730385988881.post-10274904564338626262013-04-04T21:20:52.337-07:002013-04-04T21:20:52.337-07:00Darnell, fabulous post and amazing cards...I love ...Darnell, fabulous post and amazing cards...I love your backgrounds, they really look like printed paper.
