Clematis Trio - Woodware Stamps

Good evening everyone, 
Not much crafting going on in this house again! I needed a birthday card for my mother-In-Law so I turned to a lovely set of stamps that I got for Christmas. They are Woodware stamps and this one is called 'Clematis Trio'.

These are large stamps so I've used a 7" card base for this one.
I've coloured them with promarkers and copics and added liquid pearls to the centre of the flowers. The background papers are from Crafters Companion. I've used a peony die from Creative Expressions and some enamel dots from Hobby Craft.  The sentiment tag stamps are from Lili of the Valley.
