Secret Garden

• The card base is Pear Pizzazz with the front of the card embossed with the Modern Mosaic Embossing Folder.
• I stamped the flowers from Secret Garden was stamped on Naturals White CS with Versamark and Heat embossed with White Embossing Powder. I used a Sponge Dauber to sponge Crushed Curry Ink on the centers of the flowers then worked out from the centers with Daffodil Delight Ink. I ran them through the Big Shot with the Secret Garden Framelits.
•  On a piece of Naturals White CS I stamped the greeting from Bring on the Cake in Versamark and heat embossed it with Wild Wasabi Embossing Powder. I cut it with a Circle Collection Framelit and layered it on a circle of Daffodil Delight CS. I layered it on a Tea Lace Paper Doily and then layered it on the card base.
• I adhered two of the flowers and a leaf cut from Pear Pizzazz CS to the card base, I added Dimensionals to the back of the third flower and popped it up over the two flowers on the base. 

The Stampin' Llamas are Hopping Again!

Welcome to our blog hop, we are small in numbers this time but I am sure there has been things you have pinned for inspiration.  You might have hopped over from Buffy's Blog and if you did I hope you enjoyed her blog as much as I do.

For our hop I decided to use the same floral stamp set on all of my cards, I decided on Secret Garden. So here are the cards I came up with.

For my first card I used Red, White and Black.

• The card base is Whisper White CS, layered with Basic Black CS, then Real Red CS.
• On a piece of 3 3/4" x 5" Whisper White CS I stamped the same flower over and over with Stazon. I started at the middle of the bottom and masked the flower as I stamped.
• The sentiment is from Express Yourself, I stamped it with Real Red.

Card number #2 uses Rose Red, Very Vanilla, Baked Brown Sugar, Strawberry Slush, Crumb Cake and Soft Suede

,

• The card base is Baked Brown Sugar CS layered with Rose Red CS then Crumb Cake DSP,
• On a piece of Very Vanilla CS I stamped three of the flowers from Secret Garden. I started with the largest flower and stamped it in the lower right corner using Baked Brown Sugar. Next I took the second largest flower and stamped it overlapping both sides of the large flower using Rose Red. On the other side of the second flower I stamped the lily, again overlapping using Strawberry Slush.
• The sentiment is from Bring on the Cake stamped with Soft Suede, I layered it onto Rose Red CS and then onto Soft Suede CS. I then added it onto the card.

My last card uses Rose Red, Chocolate Chip, Very Vanilla, Crisp Cantaloupe, Calypso Coral, Primrose Petals and Crushed Curry.

• The card base is Very Vanilla CS layered with a piece of Rose Red CS that I ran through the Big Shot using the Stripes Embossing Folder.
• I stamped the flowers on a piece of Watercolor paper using Stazon.
• I colored the flowers using Rose Red and Crushed Curry on the largest flower, then Primrose Petals and Chocolate Chip and the next largest flower and the lily I used Crisp Cantaloupe and Calypso Coral ink. I used an Aqua Painter to color them.
• I layered it onto a piece of Chocolate Chip CS.
• I punched a strip of Very Vanilla CS with the Dotted Scallop Ribbon Punch and attached it to the bottom of the layered image.
• On a scrap of Rose Red CS I stamped the sentiment from Blooming with Kindness with Versamark and then heat embossed it with White Embossing Powder. I ran it through the Big Shot and cut it out with one of the Apothecary Accents Framelit. I popped the sentiment up with Dimensionals.
