A Flower for all Seasons

Hi Everyone! Today's card is another one using the Brick Wall embossing folder. I love it! So much fun to mix all the colours together. This time I paired it with one of my favorite stamp sets, A Flower for all Seasons. It has been retired for some time now, but I just love it. I mean, just look at that little lady bug! Too cute!

Hearth and Home stampin up

I made the curtains by embossing another piece of vellum using a striped embossing folder, which I put under the vellum that I attached to the window frame (make sense?) and behind that is a piece of Cajun Craze cardstock because I didn't want the brick showing through.

I used dimensionals for the window frame and the flower pots, I didn't want everything to be flat. It adds more character this way. I wanted to add the sentiment to the outside, but nothing looked right. So, I just stamped the inside of the card!

I hope you like it.

Thanks for stopping by and if you have any questions let me know!

Happy Stamping!

Garden in Bloom

Hi Everyone! Today's card is all about the new set Garden in Bloom. It has 20 stamps in this set! Oh, the possibilities are endless. I was also really impressed with how easy they were to line up, since they are a two step stamp if you want.

And these colours together (Lost Lagoon, Soft Sky, Pear Pizzazz, and Smoky Slate) are awesome! Okay, I'll be honest, I REALLY like the colour Lost Lagoon! Weird since my go to colours are usually found in the brights family. 

I think the new washi tape punch made for a prefect tag on this card.

Best Thoughts

Hi everyone! Today's card is from the hostess set Best Thoughts and Basic Butterflies (sentiment). I absolutely love the flower, okay I like all the stamps in this set.

I started off by embossing the flower and the butterfly using basic black embossing powder, so that I could colour them with my blender pen. The colours are a little softer when you use the blender pen which is what I was going for. 

The flower is Island Indigo and Pool Party and Pear Pizzazz for the stems and leaves, while the butterfly is Melon Mambo.


I think the pearls add an elegant touch. You can't see them very well in the photo below, but there are 4 on the card with one in the sentiment.
