Blossom Branch ~ HSS436, TTTC245

Hello there stampers!  Today's card is for Hand Stamped Sentiments color challenge for April.  Our colors this time are Garden Green, Pretty Peacock, and Petal Pink.

I'm also playing along with Tic Tac Toe Challenge #245, using Green, Die-cut, and Outdoors.

I used my Seasonal Branches set and made a nice little branch with pretty Petal Pink blossoms on it.  I love the texture the die cuts give the leaves and flowers. 

I layered everything on Radiating Stitches dies and added some little Brushed Brass Butterflies.  Don't they add just the right finishing touch!?!

Here's a list of my supplies....

Stamps: Seasonal branches, Heartfelt Hexagons

Paper: White, Pretty Peacock, Garden Green, Petal Pink

Ink: Pecan Pie, Pretty Peacock, Petal Pink

Accessories: Radiating Stitches dies, Seasonal Branches dies, Linen Thread, Brushed Brass Butterflies

Thanks for taking a peek and have a blessed day!

Spring Flowers ~ HSS435

Hey stampers!  Today's card is for Hand Stamped Sentiments Photo Inspiration challenge for April.

I was drawn to the colorful floral wreath on the weathered blue barn wood background.

I started with a piece of Azure Afternoon, ran it through the emboss & cut machine with the Timber 3D folder.  Next, I took my white ink and brushed the whole pad across the raised woodgrain.  I added a bit of sponged Crumb Cake on there here and there to mimic the weathered wood.  I also distressed the edges to make it look more "weathered".

I stamped and cut a bunch of different flowers from Two Tone Flora stamps and die set and arranged them into a pretty bouquet.  

A linen thread bow and a few little brass butterflies as finishing touches and this card was done!

Here's a list of my supplies...

Stamps: Two Tone Flora, Blessing of Home

Ink: Gorgeous Grape, Orchid Oasis, Melon Mambo, Berry Burst, Daffodil Delight, Crushed Curry, Pumpkin Pie, Granny Apple green, Lemon Lolli, Craft White

Paper: Gorgeous Grape, Starry Sky, Azure Afternoon, White

Accessories: Two Tone Flora dies, Brass Butterflies, Linen thread, Timber 3D folder

Thanks for taking a peek and have a blessed day!

Two Tone Flora Sympathy ~ HSS434, TGIFIC464

Hello stampers!  Today's card is for Hand Stamped Sentiments Sketch Challenge #434.  This is such an interesting sketch and it took me some pondering before I came up with what I wanted to do.  

I finally settled on the idea that the images from the new stamp set Notes Of Nature would work nicely for the background shapes on the sketch.  I added some flowers in from Two Tone Flora in Bubble Bath and Soft Seafoam leaves to coordinate with the challenge from TGIF Inspiration Challenge #464.

I'm trying to build up my sympathy card stash, so I chose this sympathy sentiment from Inspired Thoughts.

Thanks for taking a peek and have a blessed day!

Happy Healing Fluffy Friend ~ HSS431

Hello Stampers!  Today's card is for Hand Stamped Sentiments sketch challenge #431.

I had a friend request a cute get well card for a family member, so this is what I whipped up using the fun Fluffiest Friends set.  I think this nice little kitty presenting a flower pot is cheerful and great for a happy healing card.

I added the fluffy little bird to the inside of the card.

Thanks for taking a peek and have a blessed day!
