Retro Floral Inspiration

I just bought a new shirt at the store yesterday. As soon as I saw it I want totally gaga over the cool print. It reminds me of something I wore when I was a child back in the 70's so I had to have it. I love the colors of the flower and wanted to copy the print for todays card

I used flowers from an Inkadinkado line for the main image panel. The flowers were stamped on vanilla cardstock and colored with copic markers. The sentiment is from a $1 bin somewhere... I love the circular image. I colored the sentiment panel with copics and just kept blending until they ran together in a circular rainbow.
Here is a picture of my shirt.... Isn't it great?? If it inspires you then please post a link to your creations here. I'd love to see!
What do you think?
