Awash with Flowers

Hello Peeps !!!

Happy Monday !!!

Hope everyone had a nice weekend. Mine was uneventful and restful with some family time.

I did a few stamping using the set above- Awash with Flowers. It is a 2 -step stamping and you can choose to line them up or not. I just did a visual on mine and it was sort of a hit or miss situation. Either way, I think they look pretty good.

Awash

Hello Peeps !!!

Happy Friday !!!

My new set arrived yesterday and did not waste anytime inking it up. I got the clear this time with the thought of the alignment being easier. In a way it seems like it is easy but I still have to make sure that I take time lining it up. I chose really soft spring colors and embellished it with the bashful blue satin ribbon. Hope you like it.

Friend and Flowers

Hello Peeps!!!

Happy Tuesday !!!

I really like the sketch on Mercy's blog (MTSC66) and decided to step up to the challenge. I also saw color challenge today but then I did not realized I was going to play with these colors- Pretty in Pink, Pumpkin Pie and Chocolate Chip and My neutral-Whisper White. I found some leftover DSP and they were perfect for my background, so I made use of them, too. I have very little stamping here and it's from a Christmas set called Snow Buddies that I added in the background. The sentiment is a rub on. Hope you like it.

RECIPE:

Stamps: Snow Buddies

Paper: See above

Ink: Pumpkin Pie

Accessories: satin ribbon, pearls

Wings of Friendship

Hello Peeps !!!

Happy Monday !!!

Another late day for posting for me- still not feeling the greatest but at least I am getting over the cold. I deicided to work on my Mojo and played along with the Monday Mojo131 sketch.

I used a 4-1/4x 5-1/2 paper instead. I used DSP on the stamped flowers, cut them and mounted in dimensionals. I wanted to add a bit of background to the flowers, so I used Rose Red and stamped the flowers and did some cutting again. Hope you like it.
