I used a neglected wood-mounted rubber stamp from Penny Black called Blush. I used this one a lot when I first bought it many years ago. I stamped it several times in Brilliance Pearlescent Sky Blue. The sentiment is also an older wood-mounted stamp, from Rubber Stampede, and it is stamped in Versafine Onyx Black. I added some shimmery grey ribbon and a silver butterfly charm. The stamped blue cardstock is mounted on charcoal-grey cardstock and then onto a blue card base.
I found inspiration in the Forget-Me-Not challenge at Double D Challenges, specifically the blue colour and the flower theme. Here is their inspiration graphic. This is my third and final entry.
I am also linking up to Penny Black Saturday's Anything Goes challenge. I haven't played there for a long time! They have an adorable new blog badge:
