Gladiolus

Hi friends! Today I have some gladiolus for you. These were just released by Papertrey Ink as part of their Year of the Flowers set. I colored them with my copics and I love how they came out! I used a base of plum pudding. I stamped the gladiolus in palette noir on stampers select white. I punched the tag out using my cuttlebug dies and stamped it with a portion of the glad stamp inked with plum pudding. I used mixed messages and black ink for the sentiment. Sorry for the poor lighting... I took the picture late at night as this card was off to my MIL early the next morning!
