Wonderful Friend

It’s Friday – yay!!   Kimberly here, and I’m happy to be back sharing a card with you today!   I love the stamp set Not Too Shabby – here I’ve used it less as a bouquet and more like a garden full of flowers!

I stamped the bouquet several times, adjusting the height a bit for a staggered look.  I used a light color of Memento ink to stamp with so that I could get a more no-line look on this card.   I  colored the blooms in with Copics, adding a few extra leaves here and there as filler.   I stamped and embossed the sentiment (from the sets Thanks & Beautiful Life) on a strip of black cardstock.   I die cut a scalloped edge to place behind my sentiment strip, and adhered this across the stems of the flowers.   I added the panel to a top folding 4.25′ x 5.5′ pale blue card base.

Hope you’ve enjoyed my card today!   It’s fun to think of different ways to use your stamps, other than how they were originally intended.  We’d love to see what you create!  Have a fantastic weekend and I’ll see you again next week, Honey Bees!
