More fun with Blooms and Wishes

I think I have become addicted to this set. There are so many ways you can use it. In the one above I used Mint Macaron cardstock and embossed the daisy a couple of times in white. Then I used Mint Macaron ink to fill in the empty spaces. Love the matching ribbon. Sentiment is from Crazy about You set.

I did a similar thing with this card. The cardstock is Peekaboo Peach and I mounted the card front Whisper White and then Early Expresso.
Mint Macaron again. Same technique of combining white embossing with tone on tone ink. Some of the Mint Macaron stamping was full strength and some was stamped off.
Hope you are all having fun too!

More Blooms and Wishes

Love, love, love this set. There is no end to the ideas of how it can be used to produce either soft watercolour effect designs or a vibrant strong look. Also loving the look of the new in colours. They team very well with so many existing colours. This first one is cased from Stampin' Up. Colours are Daffodil Delight, Peekaboo Peach, Old Olive and Watermelon Wonder stamped off once.

More stamping off with Island Indigo, Mint Macaroon and Crumb Cake.

This another cute new set called Sitting Here. It's a fun 3D look.

One Sheet Wonder with Blooms and Wishes.

I have found a great new idea. One Sheet Wonders. What is this? Have a look here. This is a video that explains how to stamp a single sheet of cardstock and make several cards from it. The stamp set I used was the same as Michelle Last in her video, Blooms and Wishes. The cardstock is the new Flirty Flamingo. I used Flirty Flamingo, Peekaboo Peach, Watermelon Melon, Delightful Daffodil, Old Olive and Delightful Dijon. Some images are full strength and some I stamped off.

I forgot to take a photo before I cut it up so I 'borrowed' a photo of Michelle's. And this below is her instructions I followed loosely to cut it up.

Love the contrast between Flirty Flamingo and the strip of Watermelon Wonder. The Washi Tape is retired. Sentiment is from Crazy About You.
This one above has a strip of In Colour Designer Paper. Sentiment is from Better Together.

What a wonderful idea for a set of cards for a gift.

More Strength and Prayers

More fun with the Irrestibly Floral DSP. This time I brayered it in Always Artichoke. The stamped image is matted with Always Artichoke and then Early Expresso. The card base is Sahara Sand.

Grateful Bunch bundle meets watercolouring again. The stems are embossed in white onto the watercoloured panel. The flower was stamped and hand cut. I stamped the lace from this set on a narrow panel and adhered that at the side.
