Beautiful Bouquet

Hello dear friends and readers,

I am finally enjoying some fantastic weather and I can see life all around. Of course, there are some bounds of allergies going on at my house, but I am able to enjoy the warmth, the sun, the rain, and all the pollen that this fabulous weather brings forth.

I have been busy working outside in the yard and garden, but find time to craft and enjoy the craft room. Today, I have a card for the DoStamper Stars 281, which is a card from the Stampin' Up Catalog.

This is my take on the challenge. I textured and color the paper all at once, by simply applying color to the Petal Pair TIEF and I love how it turned out. The images was cut out using Big Shot and the Bouquet Bunch framelits. The sentiment is from Birthday Blossoms which I really like and feel sorry to see it retire at the end of this month.

Thank you for your visit today. Enjoy the beautiful weather, get inspired in nature and please do visit again. Be well.

Miriam

The happy season is here.

What do I mean? Well, I mean summer time, gardening, swimming, growing season, new catalog, open windows, and time with friends. I love that our weather has finely realized that this is Spring time.

The colors are popping up everywhere around here. We did a lot of yard work over the weekend and some of my bulbs look so happy and colorful now. I love when plants start to wake up and reveal their beautiful colors.

Dostamper Stars #280 calls for colors combination. I followed the colors adding only Whisper White and Basic Black. The background is from the Tutti-Frutti dsp from the , then I created the front panel using Dragonfly Dreams and Falling Flower stamp sets. The sentiment is from the Birthday Blossoms stamp set, which will retire at the end of this month. I love this set and will miss it. Although I do not see myself parting with my set.

Tip: The front panel was made by 2 phase stamping. I first stamped the lower part, than use a scrap piece of paper to cover that so I could stamp the top without having the image transpose on the bottom. A nice little trick to keep things neat and separated.

Thank you for your visit today. Remember to check the retiring list and snatch your favorites before they are gone. Be well
