Pretty incredible, right?  Can you imagine winning all eight....yes, eight new March release stamp sets?!!  Well, let me show you a quick peek at my card and then you can jet on over to read all about how to enter to win!

For my card, I chose to use the Power Poppy stamp set Short Stacks for my image.  For my sentiment, I chose one from Hero Arts' Trees, Birds, and Messages stamp set.  My image was stamped with Memento's Tuxedo Black ink and colored with Copics.  A little simple layering with some stitching and this card was ready in a snap!  :)




Those sweet little tulips get me every time!  And what about that darling cupcake?  :)
