“The earth laughs in flowers” – E.E. Cummings – a completely appropriate greeting for today I think.
I spent some time in my stamp room yesterday and it felt good! I did need a little inspiration to get started though and got it from the Create with Connie and Mary sketch for this week!
I haven’t inked up Fabulous Florets for too long so here it is. I kept it simple, just a little embossing to add a slight background for those bright and laughing flowers!

Very pretty! I love the lacy embossed border and the flowers on the die cuts. I also love the little bundle of fussy cut leaves and the little bow. Very pretty!
