I got this Hero Arts Tulip stamp in a big lot from eBay a year or so ago. I think it's really pretty, and it won't be back on eBay for quite a while! The sentiment is from A Chemistry With Paper's All Year Bag Toppers. The title is a little deceptive. What I really use it the most for is all the terrific sentiments. They are all in different fonts, too, which I like.I used Confetti Cream as my base and added some retired SU! DP. I colored the image with markers and a touch of Niji watercolors. To make my hat pin, I just glued a couple of pearls on the end with Diamond Glaze. Works like a charm, and for a FRACTION of the cost of the Pretties kit! Can you see my frugal nature coming out?
