Today is Old is New Day on the Impression Obsession blog. It's the day we celebrate all the oldies-but-goodies in our stamp and die stash. This Zinnia stamp is one of the first stamps I got from Impression Obsession. Isn't it such a lovely, timeless image?

For today's card, I stamped the Zinnia on pink cardstock. Here's a TIP: If you don't want to spend a ton of time coloring, stamp onto colored cardstock instead of white! Then add some loose coloring on top for detail. You could also spend a lot of time coloring this image to make it extremely detailed (which would be GORGEOUS) but for this card, I decided loose and scribbly was what I wanted.
