Stamp Something - Vintage with flowers + Stampartic - Flowers

Good morning everyone...have you got anything exciting your doing today...I think you should tell us all to make us jealous lol, my darling Husband is working so I wont be doing anything exciting...today's card is a fabulous little sweetie from Mo's Digital Pencil I found in a pile of images yesterday and she was just begging to be coloured so of course I had to, but I didn't have much time so think the colouring is a bit rough, shes one of the Shy Valentines and is called Nessa, I coloured her with distress inks and teamed her with some papers from the Papermania Signature Regency paper pad...I love the muted vintage shades in this pad, I paper pieced the heart and finished with some thin ribbons, a couple of flowers, a bow and a ceramic sentiment...I used an old Stampartic sketch for her and am entering it for this months Stampartic challenge of flowers...I'm also entering it for the Stamp Something Vintage with flowers challenge too, Im hoping shes vintage enough...I hope you like it and whatever you have planned, exciting or not have a brilliant day
