Birthday Card
Just got a whole lot of new stamps from a brilliant place called the Stamp Smith. This is the image that I first saw on Docraft and really liked. I asked the friend who has used it in an ATC, where she got it. Well she borrowed it from a friend who got it from ebay as a one off. But.... it had a title. I googled the title, and hey presto found the site. They have great stamps and offer a really friendly fast service. I highly recommend them!

Oh wow Astrid your lady is beautiful and loving all the flowers and cogs. Terrific work again my friend. Annette x
This is stunning. Love the contrast between the vibrancy of the fruits & flowers against that muted background.
Such beautiful use of contrast here Astrid- love how the flowers come alive with color!
Gorgeous, Astrid, what a stunning hat!
Ah three of my favorite things Astrid...Flowers, Vintage ladies and Steampunk how can you go wrong...simply gorgeous awesome work my dear!!!
I love the combination of the little "cogs" ( I hope I translated that word wel ? I mean the little wheels) with all the flowers Astrid. It gives your image just that little EXTRA !
Also the necklaces are wonderful detail !!

Beautiful, Astrid! I love the contrast of color and non-color, and the delicacy of flowers and the steam punk touches. Nicely done!

Fantastic piece! All the colors on the soft image and background are perfect! I especially like the frame work at the bottom. You're good!!
I think I'm a few cogs short...So that's were they went! Lovely, Astrid!
Astrid, I love the colourful flowers against the soft background sepia tones. It adds such depth and texture.
This is just wonderful! I like all of it. So delicate and beautiful on your card.
A beautiful piece, Astrid. I really like the contrast of the bright flowers and fruit with the delicate nature of the picture.
So beautiful, Astrid.
That looks quite charming and enchanting, dear Astrid! Beautifully done, and very artistic as well!

Oh Astrid this is so beautiful.
I love them. Amazing work my dear friend.
Wheels and flowers all together in a fine composition. Great!
Astrid, your Lady of the Flowers is wonderful. I'm not sure how you achieved the look but perhaps a shadow effect or the edges of the main image project a three dimensional effect which is beautiful and stunning. Great artwork as always.
