One of the first items I added to my pre-order basket was the gorgeous Varied Vases stamp set and its co-ordinating Vases builder Punch. I was so happy to see another stamp set and co-ordinating punch as the ladies in my classes love this combination. For today’s project I have only used the stamp set.
I took a 4⅛” by 2¼” piece of Whisper White cardstock and stamped the vases in groups across the panel in Pool Party, Blushing Bride, So Saffron and Calypso Coral ink. I overlapped some of the vases to add interest.

I inked up the gorgeous floral stem in Early Espresso ink being careful to only partly ink up the stem as in this case I didn’t want to ‘see’ them in the vase. I coloured the flowers in with Calypso Coral ink but managed to get a small halo by rocking the stamp………don’t you hate doing that. To cover it up I re-inked the stem and stamped again adding the flower colour more carefully this time.

At the other end of the strip I stamped 2 partial stems in Early Espresso ink and added 2 of the ‘tulip’ style flowers with the Early Espresso and coloured them in with So Saffron ink.

I stamped the sentiment from the same stamp set in Calypso Coral ink onto a scrap of Whisper White cardstock and trimmed it out with my scissors adding a flagged end before gluing it with Tombow Liquid Adhesive to the right side of the panel.
The stamped panel was adhered to a Calypso Coral strip 4⅛” by ½”. The scalloped border was stamped in Calypso Coral ink about half way up a Thick Whisper White card base and the completed panel was added on top with Stampin Dimensionals. A few Basic Rhinestones were added to finish the card off.
Such a simple, pretty card. Hope you like it
