First I stamped the vines and then I took the flowers and stamped them in a couple different colors like is on my shower curtain, here is my inspiration.
I decided to cut away part of the bottom to add the sentiment and chose to go with a die cut border, which I cut out of another piece of cream cardstock so that I could layer a scalloped border. Added a couple of pearls on either side of the sentiment and I was done :)
I would also like to put my card in the Sisterhood of Crafters challenge which is bloomin flowers.
RS Tapestry - Trellis leaf vine and Butterfly blooms peg stamps

Beautifully done Connie! My first thought was old wall paper pattern (showing my age now, lol). You know what else you can do ... take that photo of your shower curtain and simply print it out and cut it down to size for a background panel on a card. I've done that for my mom ... took pictures of her wall paper and turned the photos into designer paper and created tissue box covers for her. LOL Yep ... everything I look at somehow becomes a crafting idea! (it's an addiction lol) Hugs and happy day!
Oh yea ... Thanks so much for joining us at The Sisterhood’s ‘Bloomin’ Flowers’ challenge and please come back again soon!

Inspiration comes from everywhere, doesn't it. I love that your shower curtain was your inspiration. This card is so pretty. Love those sweet little flowers!
So pretty Connie! Love how you used those peg stamps. Great pattern and pretty colors. The curved border looks wonderful! I love that die set! I used it couple of days ago. :)
when people receive these cards, i wonder if they know how much time and thought you put into all the special little details. i love the curve, the scalloped boarder and i missed the pearls, i am so happy you pointed them out, a beautiful touch!!
and yes, that is a beautiful shower curtain!!!
Oh WOW! I thought that was just some beautiful Designer Paper you bought. Your stamping is so pretty and looks amazing!!! I also love the design of this card and that curvy border. Soooo Pretty!
Very pretty design, Connie! It's very reminiscent of old-fashioned wallpaper. Love it! Thanks for joining us at The Sisterhood of Craters Challenge. Marsha DT
