Final call for the awesome Love Blossoms stamp set! The special officially ends on March 31. I have an open order pending for anyone that missed the boat on ordering! I only have a few days to get the order submitted. Feel free to contact me directly to have a set added in for you. The set features stunning flowers that can be used alone or together and a full set of sentiments. Here is the full set-
The set comes with watercolor shading stamps, but I have had the coloring bug lately and have colored my image with Copics. You can easily get a variety of looks by using different coloring mediums. I seriously need to add to my pinks collection, but felt the colors I had worked well with the Ballerina cardstock by Close To My Heart.
My image is inked with black pigment ink and embossed in clear. My striped pink paper is from the Something Fierce paper line. The pink stripe coordinates perfectly with the Ballerina Pink cardstock. I originally joined Close To My Heart (D.O.T.S. at the time) in 1995 due to the matching cardstock, pattern papers and inks. I was only a scrapbooker at the time, and became a cardmaker after seeing heat embossing for the first time. Twenty plus years later, I am still in love with the coordinating products, with stamps being a close second! (And yes, I think I was like nine when I started with Close To My Heart, least anyone start doing the math out there!)
I created my card based on the sketch challenge this week at Sketch Saturday. They have an awesome challenge this week, you can create with any of their past sketches for the challenge. You should check out their sketch library for your next project. I went with Sketch #280 for my card.
I also played along with the Tic Tac Toe Challenge at The Paper Players. I went with pattern paper, sparkle and floral.
