New Release at Two Paper Divas

It's time for the new release at Two Paper Divas.   The May release is one of my favorites so far.  We've got you covered from Nautical to Patriotic to Flowers and more.  Today, I'm featuring the brand new "Tulip Bucket Bouquet" for this lovely Mother's Day card which also features beautiful papers from Graphic 45.  Before you leave, be sure and scroll down for details on the upcoming challenge.  Someone will win a fabulous prize!

I was recently gifted with some real-life gorgeous, two-toned tulips, which inspired me for coloring up my stamped image below.

I used my Tombow Dual brush markers to color up my image and added some Stickles glitter glue.  I wanted to have my lovely tulips coordinate with my papers, so I chose to stick with lavender and orange colors.  I fussy cut my stamped image and popped it out with foam squares.

I just love how colorful and cheery it turned out and my Mom will love it too; it's her Mother's Day card this year.  The Tulip Bucket Bouquet is perfect for special occasion cards, encouragement, get well, birthdays and just because.  Get yours today!
