It's time to give a few retiring sets a proper send off, so My Inky Friends have gathered together to have some fun! We each picked a favorite set from the Retiring list to share with you. Welcome to the Fond Farewell Blog Hop!
I made a trio of projects that show the versatility of this stamp set. This is one of those sets that works with every technique, every sketch, and every color combo. I had some fun with this one!
The project I first wanted to do was this one using one of my favorite colors--Fresh Fig.
I stamped both layers of the flower in Fresh Fig and added a Basic Black outline. The leaves were Old Olive with the same outline. The butterfly was inked in Pool Party with a little of the Crushed Curry to accent. The bee was fussy cut after I stamped it in Crushed Curry and Basic Black. Inside I made it pretty with a row of the same flowers.
My next card used the Basic Black outline stamps to create my own coloring page.
I then used my Stampin' Blends to color the images. I used the Wood Textures Designer Series Paper as my background paper. How fun. I don't need to leave my house to have a Paint and Palette experience!
My final card uses my new favorite tool...the Stamparatus.
I used a template and my Stamparatus to crate the wreath using the butterfly stamps from A Garden in Bloom. It was fun technique to try and I like the results. Plus, I used Pink and Gray for my color palatte, a stretch for me.
I hope you enjoyed my projects as well as the rest of the stops on our hop.
See you next month!
Happy Stamping!
