My first Sweet Pea Stamp

This week at Fussy and Fancy our challenge is "GREEN"  (the color or going green.)  Sweet Pea stamps is the sponsor and this is how I got my first Sweet Pea stamp.   I must say that I am in love with these stamps.  Although, they are a little intimidating with all the fine lines and details.  I think I did alright.  (must practice)

I had fun making this card.   I love the flowers and the leaves.  I think those paper flowers are my new favorite embellishment.   (Bonus, I'm using my scraps)  I love how the sparkle turned out.   I found a tutorial on how to make your own Glimmer Mist.  Here.  It works.  Although, I was on the search to find a spray bottle that sprayed nice.  So, did I save money probably but I still don't like the way my bottle sprays but I do have glimmer mist and several colors with the price of only one Tattered Angel's bottle (@ local scrapbook store price is $7.95+tax).  So, I'm happy.  

I am so happy that it's Friday. I hope you have a wonderful weekend.   
Thanks for stopping by.
