Happy Flower Patch

Background is Corner Garden,

stamped flowers and die cut,

then over stamped and daubed the edges with the same ink colour

Leaves similarly stamped and die cut,

then over stamped a couple of times with the same colour ink

I'd stamped corner garden onto coloured card, 

but didn't like the effect, so  used this to punch some little flowers.

I also die cut the sentiment with another flower shape.

I experimented a bit with this one,

but ended up liking the subtle effect of using the same 

colour ink to create depth and shadow. 

Corner Garden

You may recognise this one that I did as a class project recently.

I needed an elegant one for MIL

So added the sentiment and rhinestones

to make it more special

for a very special Lady.

Hope you have a Super Saturday!

Corner Garden Stampin' Up!

Hi there, thanks for stopping by again.

I wanted to share the single large stamp Corner Garden with you again.

This time showing you the fine detail 

with white embossing powder on blackberry bliss card stock.

So I needed to do some swaps for my lovely fellow demos,

and thought I'd follow my success with pool party the other day.

But NO, it wasn't going to be that easy.

The flowers just didn't look right,

so I left them off, and just added the ribbon.

Now Darnell suggested leaving off the ribbon, 

but in this case the flowers looked a bit dirty instead of white,

so I went with this.

I then tried it in the opposite colour way

of Blackberry Bliss on white,

with BB satin ribbon.

Just proves - same stamp, different colours, different look.

Hope you are having a good week

and see you again soon

Corner Garden meets Flower Shop

Prepare to feast your eyes!

This is an easily missed single stamp from Stampin' Up!

I heat embossed with white powder onto pool party card stock.

I then stamped and heat embossed with pool party powder onto vellum.

I added a lush ribbon and rhinestones.

Here's a different layout but same products and techniques.

I shaped the flowers with a dry embossing ball tool.

This is one of those moments when you think yeah I like!

(well I hope you'll agree?!)

Let me know if you preferred landsape or portrait?!

Be sure to drop by again soon.

because I have a lot to show you!

Have a fab weekend

Spotlight Technique with Corner Garden

Here's some 'happy post' I sent recently.

The background stamp is Corner Garden,

which is gorgeous.

I stamped it again on some spare card,

punched out a circle, coloured it in, and mounted it on Dimensionals (foam pads).

The sentiment is from Bloom With Hope.

The mat behind is the same punched shape, cut in half,

and spread apart to create the illusion of a bigger layer underneath.

(Hope that makes sense?!)

Happy Friday
