SSC103: Best Thoughts...

Good morning, and happy new Sunday Stamps challenge day! Yippee! It's time for another fun challenge and this time we are looking for crafty creations using  the following sketch:
Such a pretty sketch, don't you think? The Stampin' UP! colors I chose to create my card are: Soft Sky, Crumb Cake, Early Espresso and White. I also had to use a new stamp set from the 2015-2016 catty called: Best Thoughts.  You can purchase this very pretty Hostess stamp set for only $10 when you host a party or place an order of at least $150.

    Annette, I love the way the bohemian background echoes the shapes on the petals of the flower. The butterfly is perfectly placed, too. Gorgeous card. Thanks for having me as GD!

    Annette, your card has so many lovely details, I can't decide which I like the best! Is it the embossing folder (love), the coloring of your flower (amazing), the oval opening (perfect), or the butterfly (precious)...I just can't decide! Love, love, love your card!!

Impressions a Bloom for Sunday Stamps!

I forced myself to clear off my stamping table (well actually just push stuff away) and created a floral card for this weeks new challenge at Sunday Stamps!  The Impressions  a Bloom Bundle is one of my newest favorite sets and I really have not had time to create with all of the very many different ways you can with this set.  Here's my 2nd go. Soft pastel colors? Count me in!  And these petals exemplify the softness you can achieve with the Impressions a Bloom .  For these flowers, I stamped 2 in Peach Pie ink followed by Timid Tiger ink.

I stamped the outline set of pears image using Pecan Pie ink and then stamped the solid part of the pear image using Darling Duckling ink which also had some Timid Tiger ink sponged onto it as well. I then took my Darling Duckling and my Timid Tiger Stampin' Blends and outlined some of the edges of the pears to add more depth to each Pear. Next, I colored the leaves and stem using Old Olive, Mossy Meadow and Pecan Pie Stampin' Blends...
