Sunday Stamps! #266

Happy Sunday crafty friends. Today starts another new challenge at Sunday Stamps! and this week we are working with a sketch challenge. Here's what I made using my most all time favorite stamp set from the 2021 -2022 annual catalog - The Hand-Penned Petals.

I know I should be working on or at least trying out some of the Christmas products from the July - December 2021 Mini Catalog, but I honestly am having a hard time going there. I am thinking October will be my "hello, you need to start making those oodles of Christmas cards before you are staying up much too late to get them done". :0

However, I have to admit I did indeed use a new item from a Christmas bundle for this card. Do you know what it is? It is the beautifully shaped die cut behind my flower arrangement and it is from the Seasonal Labels Dies. These dies are going to be awesome for any sentiment you have. I am excited about it - but remember...I'm not going there yet. lol

I colored my Hand-Penned Petals die cut flowers using Rich Razzleberry, Daffodil Delight, So Saffron and Mossy Meadow Stampin' Blends. Super quick and easy to color. That may be half the reason it is my all time favorite stamp set from the annual catalog. :)

I paired it with a polka dot piece of Beautifully Penned 12" x 12" DSP from Sale-a-bration and then matted it onto a Smoky Slate layer that was embossed with the Macrame 3D Embossing Folder.
