Blossom Flower

Hi there!  Today's card is showcasing one that I made at the Card Buffet of fellow Demos (Sally Nusbaum and Kim Coulter) this past Friday night.  The strips of Designer Series Paper are from the Floral District collection.  For the life of me, I can't remember which stamp set was used for the sentiment.  The flower was made by stacking five layers of punched flowers, spritzing with water, then wadding up to obtain that distressed look.  Such a pretty card to personally deliver to the recipient - or carefully wrap to mail!

A Flower for all Seasons

Edit Post: For some reason Blogger has failed to post my last two days of entries - so I had to do so manually.  Noticed on other blogs the last entry was from Wed.  What's going on????

Hi there!  Just wanted to share another card we made at Mary Ellen's Demo Stamp Camp last month.  We used the A Flower for All Seasons set from the main catalog.  A square of Regal Rose punched with the Dotted Scallop Ribbon punch makes a perfect frame for the stamped focal piece. The turned up corner at the bottom adds a nice touch, too.
