Bouquet Garden

 

For my niece, who is always entertaining her cat on her deck with plants and birds. 

I used the stamp set - Grace's Garden and the sentiment from - Beautiful Bouquet.

I added a Wink of Stella to all the flowers to make them sparkle.

Thanks for taking a look at the garden!

Friendly Grace

When I saw Sandy Handcock's card on Pinterest.... I just knew I needed to make one for myself. I colored in a bit more than she did on hers to make it my own.

Moment of Grace

 

My Aunt has the loveliest garden. I wanted to give her a garden in a card... so I chose the stamp set 'Grace's Garden'. The set coordinating with the Garden Gateway dies makes the process so easy. Well, it's just figuring out which colors to choose for the flowers.

Thanks for taking a closer look.

Easter Garden

For my Easter cards this year, I chose to use the 'Welcome Easter' and 'Grace's Garden' stamp sets together.  Each animal stamp within the 'Welcome Easter' set was perfect for Easter!

I colored in the designs using Stampin' Blends... it made coloring and blending so much easier than actual markers. Tip... If you can peer closer on the lamb... you will see it looks like it's fluffy. I colored in the lamb using the light Smoky Slate marker... then, using the Color Lifter marker, I swirled it on the Smoky Slate all around the lamb. Poof.... looks fluffy! Cool!


The Stampin' Blends used for the bunny are - Petal Pink and Crumb Cake.
The Stampin' Blends used for the chick are - Pumpkin Pie and So Saffron
The Stampin' Blends used for the lamb are - Smoky Slate, Ivory, Pink Pirouette, Color Lifter
The Stampin' Blends used for the flower spray are - Granny Apple Green, Calypso Coral, Highland Heather, Balmy Blue and Daffodil Delight.

Thanks for taking a closer look!

Beautiful Garden

Such a cute set the 'Grace's Garden' is. It coordinates beautifully with the 'Garden Gateway' dies to create lovely garden scenes.

I paired mine with the sentiment from the 'Beautiful Bouquet' stamp set AND the Brick & Mortar Embossing Folder.

I first cut out the opening on a piece of Crumb Cake cardstock. Then, with that piece of Crumb Cake.... I ran it through the Die-Cut/Emboss Machine with the Brick & Mortar EF. I adhered it to a piece of So Saffron cardstock. I added the flowers, then the gateway arch.

Thanks for taking a closer look!

Graces Thoughts

A few new stamp sets that I'm using here. The first is the 'Grace's Garden' stamp set that coordinates with the 'Garden Gateway' dies. The second is the 'Sending You Thoughts' which has different sentiments within the set. Pair these together, and you have a lovely Get Well or Thinking of You card!

I used the retired 'Wood Textures' DSP to dimension to the wooden fence.
