Connie Fong's Cherry Blossoms

OOOOHHHH!!! I loved this stamp when i saw it! It reminded me of my favorite movie... Memoirs of a Geisha...when they were in the garden... surrounded by the cherry blossoms... and she was with the chairman...GORGEOUS...BUT,I digress...
Anyway... I colored this image with distress inks after I stamped it onto watercolor paper with stazon jet black. I really love the soft effect of the watercoloring and how it adds to the peacefulness of this stamp. I added some stickles to the center and then of course flowers and glitter and all kinds of shiny stuff.

Here is a closeup... thanks for popping in and see ya soon... I just got a ton of new stamps... some more time available and I am ready to get crackin!
Oh yeah, on my blog,in honor of the new contest here I am offering blog candy! Stop by Dawns Rubber Room to check it out!
