Happy Tuesday!!! That means I have a fabulous technique to share with you today!!! This one is super exciting because it is all about FLOWERS!!! I just love stamping flowers and creating beautiful cards with them!!! This is no exception!!!!

Flower Patch, www.LaurasStampPad.com

How amazing is this card with the depth and texture and colors of the flowers??? I love it!!! So let’s get started on how it was created!

SUPPLIES NEEDED:ย Flower Patch Stamp Set, Flower Fair Framelits (Bundle & Save 15%), Elegant Dots Embossing Folder, Big Shot, Inks & Pearls

I started with a Whisper White card base measuring 4-1/4″ x 11″ and embossed the card front with the Elegant Dots Embossing Folder. Then I took scrap Whisper White pieces and stamped the flowers. The large center flower was done in Blackberry Bliss and the medium flower was stamped in Tempting Turquoise with the other flower on top stamped in Island Indigo. For the smaller flower, I stamped it in Crushed Curry and the smallest one (layered on top of the yellow flower) was stamped in Tangerine Tango. For the leaves, I stamped the solid image in Cucumber Crush and stamped off, then I took the center piece and stamped it also in Cucumber Crush (no stamping off). I then used the coordinating Flower Fair Framelits to cut out each of the flowers and leaves!!! No fussy cutting necessary here. I have a couple tips for finding the correct way to line up the flowers without spinning them around and around to see how it lines up. Check out the video below for those tips!! ๐Ÿ™‚ I adhered the flowers with Stampin’ Dimensionals to a piece of Tip Top Taupe. I also stamped the greeting and little mini flower from the Flower Patch Stamp Set in Tip Top Taupe. I love it!!! You could use so many color combinations for a card like this and each one would be stunning I’m sure!! I finished off the flowers with a few Pearls!!! Love it!!!

Here is the Video Tutorial showing the tips and tricks on stamping and using the Framelits!!! I will be posting the other samples from the video soon! Be sure to subscribe to my blog in the upper right corner so you don’t miss out!!

Happy Stampin’
