I was thrilled to attend the Stampin' Up! Leadership 2010 Conference in Phoenix this January, where I received the Elements of Style stamp set for free (coming in the Summer Mini)!  Here's my first card made with it:

Mojo Monday 130 Elements of Style

Yellow roses grow wild in the lower elevations here in the Black Hills, and I knew for sure that I was going to do the wild rose stamp in this set in that color.

• I stamped the roses on Apricot Appeal Card Stock in VersaMark clear ink then heat embossed in Black Stampin' Emboss Powder.  
• Then with a Blender Pen I accented the roses with the same Apricot Appeal Classic Ink to darken them up.
• The leaves were colored with Always Artichoke Classic Ink.
• The stylized hummingbird is to commemorate the one I spotted while at Leadership...a big treat in the middle of a long, snowy winter!
