May's Papertrey Ink release brought the newest stamp set in the Year of Flowers line, the Lily of the Valley. It's another beautiful flower image and a great addition to this line that I love so much. I created a fairly clean and simple card so that the image really takes center stage. I stamped the card base with one of the backgrounds from Background Basics: Geometrics in dark chocolate link. Then, I stamped my flower on white cardstock and colored it with copic markers. I stitched it to a dark chocolate layer and added my sentiment along with a few clear rhinestones.
Thanks so much for stopping by and for the sweet comments that so many of you leave. It always brightens my day when I read your comments!

Your card is very stunning. How did you color the background so that it looks sprayed?
Beautiful Niki. The lilies really stand out against the pale blue background. So vibrant.
Oh my word, SOOOOO beautiful!
I have some catching up to do with the YOF series. I borrowed a friend's Sweet Peas se and have yet to give it back! I'm pretty sure she got this one too--hee hee.
Your card is phenomenal as usual!

This is stunning! I love the vibrant green of the leaves against the pale blue. Amazing color combination.
So beautiful! Your coloring work is gorgeous! :)
I actually thought you stamped on Aqua Mist. Your airbrushing is perfect and the card is GORGEOUS!
I really like your card. This month's flower is a favorite of mine since I was born in May. I wanted to take this opportunity to tell you how much I am enjoying the stamp sets I purchased from you and the book. Hope you are feeling well.
Wow! I love how the flowers pop against the background. How did you do that?
So pretty Niki, love how you paired this with the grid background!
your coloring is gorgeous. If I thought I could color and shade like that, I'd invest in Copics and some of the open line PTI stamps.
what lovely coloring and perfect stitching Niki!! love the bg stamping too!
Gorgeous CAS card! Love the flowers and the white with shading - I'm always wanting to colour them but this is beautiful!
