April Showers do bring May flowers and our yard is just starting to bloom with bright beautiful peonies! So in honor of our challenge and Mother's Day coming up, I wanted to create some bright florals using the Joyful Blooms stamp set with the Rounded Scallop Frame Die. I created a little cardset using these stamp sets ready to send out to the mother's in our lives
Here is a close up of one of the cards: I stacked the flowers together and then added a little bling to the centers and some liquid pearls to the white space to look like some embossing and then added a butterfly to the side with some bling for fun :)
Here is another view of the card set - Love how they turned out:
Card Ingredients:
Stamps:: Joyful Blooms from Verve Stamps
A Cut Above Dies from Verve: Rounded Scallop Frame Die,
Inks: Lady Bug Red and Tuxedo Black inks from Memento
Papers: DP from Stash, Earl Grey (TE) Sugar Cube (TE)
Accessories: Best Glue Ever, Foam dimensional tape, bling, corner chomper, EK success scallop punch, butterfly punch from MS and liquid pearls
