Paper Pumpkin Possibilities Blog Hop: Farmhouse Florals


 Hello Crafty Friends! 

What did you think of this month's kit? I love the cards! Love the little flowers popping out of places. I love how watercolory (is that a word) the elements look. But what I really love are all the friend sayings. They are sweet and heartfelt and will be so useful down the road. I love that we get to use the stamps over & over again! 

Here are the cards as designed. I always make one of each as designed before I start making alternates. 


My card is super simple and uses just stamps and ink. I like to showcase the stamps to give ideas on how to use them once the kit consumables are gone. 


I did use Misty Moonlight ink instead of the Secret Sea ink that came with the kit. I was looking for something a bit more muted. While I love Secret Sea, it just wasn't the look I wanted. Also, I wanted to use those beautiful Hues of Blue Flower embellishments. 
 
Hope you like the simplicity of this. I would love to know what color you would have used. I tried Cherry Cobbler first, but it wasn't exactly what I wanted for this.

Enjoy the hop!! Follow along by clicking on the list below!


Until next time...
Happy Craftin'!

Inspire Create Share Blog Hop: My Favorite Bundle

 


Hello crafters!! Thanks for joining another ICS Blog Hop! This month it is all about our favorite Stampin' Up! bundles. We have quite a few, so the decision is a hard one. I guess mine is whatever one I am currently working with!! 

I chose the Pretty Floral's Bundle. It is actually part of a larger suite, but I just used the bundle portion of it. 

The Florals in Bloom Suite:


Pretty Florals Stamps & Dies:


Here is my card using the bundle:


I love the Cloud Cover ink with the stamped off Pecan Pie ink. Combined with the Beautiful Gallery Designer Series Paper, it gives it a sepia look, sort of vintagey!

Hang out with us a little longer and see what everyone else's favorite bundle is! Follow along from the list below.


Until next time...
Happy Craftin'!
