I've used the letter "J". On this stamp the flower is Jack- in the- Pulpit. Related to the Calla Lilies this beautiful hooded flower can be seen in shades of deep purple and green. As I stamped the image I was surprised to see the wonderful detail of the two small butterflies on opposite corners! The image has been colored with Copics. The flower and one of the butterflies was stamped again, fussy cut and glued on top of the other.

I also chose to color the letter "N" which is surrounded by the Nasturtium. You might have had this flower served to you on a salad, as it is known for its spicy peppery flavor! The whole plant is edible!

At the top of the "N" there is a small snail...so sweet! The Floral Alphabet can be purchased as a Cling Set, Unmounted Sheet Set, or each letter individually.

The side view helps to show the main flower that has been fussy cut and placed on top of the original image giving it a little dimension!  

Here are the Copics used
