Stamps, Dies and Dots

Hi it's Sally here! By now you probably know that I love to bend the rules and be creative with our stamps! And did I mention I love bright, sunny colors!!!??

So with our Blossoms for Coloring clear set ready, I pulled out my box of scraps and my Black Ink Pad, and went to town stamping up solid and preprinted scraps with all the flower stamps.

Next, I die cut them with our Circle Infinity Dies. I cut some green strips for stems and green leaves and created three multi-colored flowers that I  foam mounted on a Snow notecard.

I stacked the flowers in a pleasing color arrangement and then glued together.  A few gems were added for a little dazzle.

Next, I needed a quick birthday "YAY" card so I used all of the leftover flower circles from the first card, and scattered them on a Snow notecard.

I added "YAY" in black cut from our Luggage Tag Alphabet die cut letters. They are foam mounted, with added gems.

Don’t forget you can always stamp the “wrong” side of the flower in colored ink to create a background, and then stamp the flower in black on top, if you don’t have colored paper to stamp on!

Thanks for stopping by,
