Sunday Stamper. Tulips from Amsterdam.

Well, goodness gracious me! I'm  on fire! Not only my second post of the day but the Sunday Stamper in goodly time! Here is the 'R' from craft'R'oom for my banner. Decided that I would take Hels literally this week, and Tulips it is, and if not from Amsterdam well my old PSX stamp (1995 honest!) has got a windmill and a stream that could be a canal and fields of tulips! The tulip stamp was from an old un-named set I had lurking in the room of stash and I filled in the bottom of the field with some scenic stamps that I have never thrown out, so this is a real nostalgic piece for me, stamp wise! Also hubby and I visited Holland in 1972 and have never forgotten it, lovely country. Only problem I had was with the flatness as I live in Wiltshire near the Gloucestershire end and we have lovely hills, I know I've walked a fair few! The banner piece was coloured with distress inks and pens and I framed it with some musical tissue tape and that's about it really! Work again tomorrow, but I'll be back as soon as possible. x
