Framed Florets Birthday Wishes

Welcome to the last Hand Stamped Sentiments Challenge of 2022!  We have a beautiful sketch for you to play along with!

I love the opportunity for lots of layers!  I didn't have much time to play with the Fitting Florets Collection before I got wrapped up in all of my Christmas creations.  This sketch was perfect for all of the beautiful Fitting Florets DSP!

I paired up a Polished Pink pattern with a smaller floral pattern of the DSP, using a strip of Blushing Bride to go along with the sketch.  I used the oval frame from the Framed Florets Dies, cutting out a Polished Pink frame with a Basic White inside.  

I stamped the sentiment in Polished Pink, because you can't have too much pink, right?!?  I fussy cut a few floral arrangements from another pattern of DSP to go around the frame.  I struggled with the ribbon/bow part of the sketch and settled for some strands of gold Simply Elegant Trim instead.  A few Brushed Brass Butterflies were the perfect final touch.

I hope you have had as much fun as I have creating along with Hand Stamped Sentiments this year.  We are taking a little break over the holidays, but will be back in 2023 with another year of brand new challenges!

Happy Stamping!

Beautiful Birthday Wishes

Happy Wednesday stampers!  I'm taking a little break from holiday creations to play along with this weeks  Global Design Project Sketch Challenge #366.

I cut in to one of the beautiful floral patterns of Fitting Florets DSP, cutting out a couple of my favorite bunches of blooms.  Some of these blooms match up with the coordinating Framed Florets dies, but you know me...I LOVE to fussy cut!

I love the Framed Florets stamp set and I love the sentiments the most!  The Wishes for a Beautiful Birthday sentiment paired up perfectly with the flowers.  

I was originally going to just go with the Soft Succulent card base and Timeworn Type 3D embossed layer, but it needed just a bit more color.  In addition to the beautiful floral patterns in the Fitting Florets DSP, there are some equally beautiful colored patterns as well.

The polished pink pattern added just the perfect pop of color that I was looking for! A few strands of Frayed Ribbon and some Gold Adhesive-Backed Swirls were the only embellishments needed!

Have a wonderful Wednesday!

Happy Stamping!

*Coming soon: Fitting Florets Collection

Fitting Florets Christmas

Hello stampers and hello Friday! We've made it through another week and that means it's time for an all new TGIF Challenges Sketch Challenge.

Demonstrators were able to pre-order a new, soon-to-be-released, bundle called Fitting Florets.  This beautiful bundle arrive on my doorstep just in time for today's sketch!

I wasn't sure which direction I was headed with this bundle at first, but as soon as I saw this beautiful Soft Succulent and Evening Evergreen pattern of DSP, I knew exactly what I wanted to do!  But first, I had to add just a bit of color!

Using the Framed Florets dies, I cut a few different leafs in Evening Evergreen and Soft Succulent. These were layered behind the Textural Elements, which I added some color to with my Sweet Sorbet and Soft Succulent Stampin' Blends.

All of the greenery and holly berries were tucked behind the sentiment, stamped in Sweet Sorbet and die cut with the Stylish Shapes dies.  Do you spy the little bits of gold too?  I pulled some individual threads from the gold Simply Elegant trim and added a few of the new Gold Adhesive-Backed Swirls.

This beautiful new collection is one you are going to want to add to your collection...trust me!  Customers will be able to order on November 1st.  But you can get it sooner if you sign up to be a demonstrator today! Pretty sweet deal if you ask me!

I hope you'll join in the fun and play along with our sketch challenge this month!

Happy Stamping!
