A Garden Walk

Welcome to the latest Hand Stamped Sentiments Sketch Challenge!  This is such a fun and unique sketch. I love it so much that I made two cards!

I wanted to showcase one of the new DSP's from the annual catalog, which is now live!  I always love a pack of paper that has patterns for all occasions.  Have you seen the Garden Walk DSP yet?  Let me introduce you to it...

I started out with the Calypso Coral floral pattern, cutting three strips to go along with the sketch.  I started out creating the frame with the Deckled Rectangle dies, but had a lightbulb moment and switched to the Countryside Corners stamp set and dies.

The Cheerful Daisies dies were perfect to add to the bottom corner, layering Calypso Coral and Basic White.  A little Garden Green sprig and a sweet sentiment completed the card.

I couldn't stop there though!  I'm pretty sure I could make this same card with every pattern of paper in this pack...it's so beautiful!  I chose the poinsettia pattern for the three strips of paper.  Isn't it gorgeous?

The Cheerful Daisies dies worked with this pattern as well, using Wild Wheat and Poppy Parade for the layers.  So pretty!

Which one is your favorite?  Calypso Coral or Poppy Parade?

Be sure to join along in the fun with our sketch this week!

Happy Stamping!

Fresh (as a) Daisy Friendship

 

The Monday Montage crew is back with an all new hop for all of you to enjoy!  No matter where you start, be sure to hop on all the way through so you don't miss a single amazing creation by this talented group of stampers!

I'll be honest, I was not drawn to the Fresh as a Daisy Suite at first.  But over time it has grown on me and now that I've had the opportunity to create a few projects with it, I love it!

I selected this beautiful pattern of Fresh As a Daisy DSP and fussy cut around the tops of the beautiful white daisies.  I added some texture with one of the awesome Basics 3D embossing folders to go behind the fussy cut DSP.

Next came some cheerful die-cut Daisies, layered to add a little more fluff to the flowers!  I pulled out the Copper Clay ink pad for the first time for the sentiment...the only stamping required for this card!  A few Boho Blue In Color Dots and a Boho Blue Textured Ribbon finished the card off.

Now it's on to the next stop of the hop!

Happy Stamping!
