If you have hung out on my blog for any amount of time you have probably heard me mention that I love to fussy cut. For some reason I just find it very relaxing! I knew looking at this tulip image from Mixed Florals that I absolutely HAD to cut and paper piece the elements of the image.
I tried using some patterned paper for the leaves, but nothing looked quite right!
In the end I decided to just color the long leaves and stems with my Granny Apple Green Stampin’ Blends. I also shadowed the images with a little bit of Pool Party.
I stamped the tulips portion of this image on a piece of DSP from the Floral Delight DSP. The small blue flowers are stamped on and cut out of a piece of paper from Everyday Happiness DSP. I love how happy the flowers look!
I did a couple of staggered layers on top of the card base … one of which is also from Everyday Happiness. And once again, of course, I distressed the edges with my paper snips and “flicked” some Lost Lagoon ink using one of my Stampin’ Blends.
The sentiment and little label shape came from the Mixed Florals stamp set. I love both of these sets so much!
Paper: Basic White, Everyday Happiness DSP, Floral Delight DSP
Ink: Memento Black, Lost Lagoon; Stampin’ Blends - Lost Lagoon, Granny Apple Green, Pool Party
Accessories: Mixed Labels Dies, Muted Palette Dots
It’s amazing how much stamping I get to do since I did more of a “deep clean” on my craft room. It’s more fun when you have a bigger space on your table than just a 6-inch square!
