My flowers are from StampTV stamp designer Melanie Muenchinger's A Year of Flowers stamp set. They were colored by painting with LuminArte Powdered Pigments mixed with Gum Arabics...very sparkely (1)  (3) and the sentiment from Club Stamp October 2007 Great Outdoors stamp set  was  jazzed up by  using Sakura GellyRollGlaze Clear Star around the perimeter (1)  (3) then mounted by threading ribbon through the Spellbinders Fancy Labels die cut tag.   To qualify for (2) I used Tim Holtz distress inks for the rubberband background Milled Lavender, Spun Sugar, Victorian Velvet & Worn Lipstick. And I used Beacon's 3 N 1 Glue to adhere all pieces.  The whole card fits (4) and (5)
