Hi! Halfway through the week - how has yours been?
I'm feeling stronger every day and planted myself in the craft room yesterday afternoon for a fun time of stamping. Two cards made, yaay!
I'm excited to share a card today made with a set that I've loved from afar. First I only saw it on other people's blogs - and admired it! For awhile now it has sat on my shelf.
Today I inked up Fresh Cut Florals from W Plus 9 and had so much fun creating a spring bouquet with many of the pretty and sweet images and dies.
The tag is cut from watercolor paper. I sponged with Peacock Feathers Distress Ink and then spritzed it with water for an airy spotted look. Adding the bold stripes to balance out the embossed sentiment, I sprinkled a few of my favorite accessory. Sequins!
Ok, I love sequins. Know what else I love? Holding a tiny stamped flower in my hand after it's die cut. I don't what it is about paper, stamped with ink -- but I do a happy dance. Is that just me or do you do it too?
Hope you have a great day! Hugs~
Be yourself.
Find delight in your craft.
Make something beautiful!
I played along with these challenges:
For the Card Concept, I was inspired by the stripes and floral tag. My style is either Clean and Simple or Clean and Layered - not sure, what do you think?
Stamps: W Plus 9- Fresh Cut Florals and matching dies
Accessories: Party Pennants Bigz Die, Bitty Banners Die - Stampin' Up!
This is really pretty and delicate in style. Lovely
