Muse # 178

Tracey has a very sweet card over at the Muse Challenge Blog, I liked the simplicity of that one flower taking the highlight spot!
I pulled out Altenew's Magnolia for her stamp and lengthened the stem a bit and added a little bud to the stem.
I watercolored with zigs Clear Clean Brush pens.
Here is Tracey's Muse card:
Heart Hugs, friends!

Colleen this is gorgeous! The purples are so striking. I have to pull my Zigs out. I forget about them, probably because they are put away and my copics sit on my desk next to me!! :)
