Using a sponge dauber I added Gray Granite ink to the centre of the flower before colouring in the bloom using the following Blends Markers – Mango Melody, Daffodil Delight, So Saffron and Gray Granite. I used an empty Wink of Stella Pen to add some Las Vegas Gold Shimmer Paint to the petals of the flower and die it out using my Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine and the Sunflower dies.

I used a sponge to add a circle of So Saffron ink to the Very Vanilla panel and having worked out where my die cut sunflower was going began to stamp the leaf images from the Lovely You stamp set. I used 1st, 2nd & 3rd generation Bumblebee ink, Gray Granite ink and Granny Apple Green ink.

Lovely You Pick a Label

I absolutely love the Lovely You Pick a Label Punch and it works so well with the Lovely You stamp set. Today I am sharing a card made for a friend.

To recreate the Lovely You Pick a Label card you will need:

Melon Mambo card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored at 4⅛” – rounded upper left corner
Highland Heather – 5½” by 3¾” – rounded upper left corner
Whisper White – 5⅜” by 3⅝” – rounded upper left corner x 2
Highland Heather strip 1” long
Whisper White strip ¾” long

I took one of the Whisper White panels and worked out where I was going to place the sentiment. I then started stamping the images making sure the stalks and messy ends would be covered by the sentiment.

I always start with the largest image and ending with the smallest image. These colours work so well together don’t they?

I added some dots in Pool Party ink using a stamp from the Dressed to Impress stamp set. The stamped panel was then glued to the Highland Heather layer with Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive. The panel was added to the Melon Mambo card base using the same adhesive.

I inked up the larger flower with Crushed Curry ink and stamped it along side the leaves. The single flower was stamped in Terracotta Tile ink to fill up the white space. The stamped layer was added to the Mint Macaron panel using Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive.

The sweet sentiment comes from the Lovely You stamp set and was stamped in Terracotta Tile ink onto the 2” square of Whisper White. This was cut out using the Stitched Shapes Dies. I also cut out a scalloped circle from the Layering Circle Dies and glued the two circles together with Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive.
