(THAT MEANS IF YOU MISSED A DAY, YOU STILL HAVE OTHER CHANCES TO WIN! And, you can go back and comment, as the winners will be chosen Saturday morning!)

The 4 Winners will be announced on the Mark's Finest Papers Blog on June 12, 2010. Each winner will receive 1 Stamp Set that will be released NEXT month!

 Today, we are featuring the new "Pears and Hollyhock" set.

For my card I stamped the flowers and hummingbird then colored them with pearlescent watercolor paints.  I used a Spellbinders lattice pendant die to frame the image.  The papers used are Mamma's Favorite Purple, and Pensacola Sand from Mark's Finest Papers, and the Wisteria Pad from Basic Grey.  I think this purple paper is so gorgeous!  I completed the card by adding half pearls and a bow made with Speedy's Morning Milk ribbon from Mark's Finest Papers.  All of the supplies used for making this card can be found at Mark's Finest Papers.
