Bouquet for Spring

Good morning, After late snow this week we have finally reached spring - the flowers in the yard are starting to make their appearance and I've even had the doors open to let the sun in!

Today marks a new moodboard challenge over at SumMore Fun and we have some gorgeous blue hues with a floral theme this time round so I have created a bouquet of flowers using the color themes:

I have used SumMore Fun's Brush Floral Stamp Set  and stamped the flowers to make my bouquet. I then added a sentiment from the same set using the same green ink as the flower stems.

I matted my card base with a coordinating blue card before adding my design. I tied a small bow and added this to the flowers. A few scattered green bubbles complete the design.

Flower Box

Good morning, well the snow has vanished again over the weekend and the temperatures are reaching above freezing through the day - who knows for how long though!

Today I'm taking over the SumMore Fun blog and my card is a folding flower box creating using 2 SumMore Fun stamp sets:

I made up a card box and decorated this with pretty pink, white and turquoise papers. I then used the Curly Cute Stamp set to stamp out a number of flowers and framed flowers in the same colors. The frames were cut out and placed around each side of the box. I fussy cut the single flowers and glued these to strips of acetate and attached them at different heights inside the box.

I then stamped the frame again and added a sentiment from the Brush Floral stamp set into the center of this. Again this was cut out and added to the back of the box:

The box is made in such away that it will fold and fit inside a 6x6in envelope.

The colors look darker if the photos but they are perfect for the moodboard challenge over on the blog:

Hello from Heart

Good morning, this cold weather looks like it is in for the duration of winter here so I thought I'd brighten up the day with some flowers.

These little flowers and sentiment are from the Brush Floral set over at SumMore Fun. I stamped the flowers using aqua markers and fussy cut them, there are plenty of other flowers and leaves among the set but I wanted a simple look. I added white enamel dots to the centers and shaped them before adding them to my wreath. my white card base was matted with 2 shades of purple card. and I adhered the wreath and flowers in place. My sentiment, stamped with purple ink on white card, was also matted with purple and added slightly under one of the flowers. A few purple enamels completed my design.

The Flowers Say Sentiment is also available as a stand alone stamp and would make a great addition to a sentiment collection if you didn't want the flowers

Don't forget our moodboard challenge is try something new this time - we all have new stash, new ideas or want to try new techniques so it's an easy one to start the year!
