Field Flowers

I've used 3 different stamp sets, Field Flowers, Nature Walk (butterfly), French Foliage (splatters).
This card was inspired by one I'd seen on a blog, not sure who's.  
We did the Field Flowers set in our February classes teaching 2 step stamping and I had wanted to used it again.
The colors used for the flowers are Baja Breeze, and Island Indigo stamped on W.White cs.
The butterflies were stamped in Black Stazon and colored using the Blender Pen and ink refills in Calypso Coral and Daffodil Delight.  The background was stamped in Early Espresso.
I used the Edgelits Adorning Accents die to do the edge of the w.white.

Umbrella - Rue Des fleurs

This set has so many amazing stamps.  The Umbrella can be used for so many different greeting cards.
This is the card we're doing this month in our classes.
The background is a piece of Natural white cs painted with brown craft paint, left to dry and then put thru the embossing folder.
The mat behind the painted piece is Pool Party and the Labels die cut is Poppy Parade.
The Umbrella is stamped with Black Stazon, then die cut and colored using the Blender pen and ink refills.
Added some Crystal Effects to the clocks to give them a glossy finish to look like glass.
Using the new Blossom punch, I punched three from Pool party and spritzed them with water and crumpled them up to partly dry, which gives them the textured look.
Any questions about my creations, please send me an email, I'd love to hear from you.

Easter Bunny (retired)

This bunny is so cute, that I had to use it on my grandchildren's cards.
Very simple card and fast to do, except for the egg took a little extra time.
I punched the dots and glued them to the oval punched egg, along with the scallop trim.
Hope your Easter is relaxing spending time with those your love.
Don't eat too many chocolate bunnies :o)

One of the cards we did in February classes.
I've owned the Field Flowers set for quite a while but never inked it up.  
I really like how it works with the 2 3/8" Scallop Circle punch for layering.
Layered my sentiment on the new Labels die....love those alot.  I think I use them on almost all my cards.
Colors I used were Baja Breeze, Island Indigo and Pear Pizzazz.
