Friends are Like Flowers

Hello! This week, the Stampendous team is sharing, "Flowers for Spring" projects. We stampers all have plenty of smaller images in our stash that can be used repetitively to create a custom background. That's just what I did on this card. Stamping only took a couple of minutes with an acrylic block, and then I kept my coloring simple too. My instructions are below.
Supplies:
Stampendous:
POPST03AFR: Flower Stamp Set
RS-F245: Friends add Color
DP111: Detail Black Embossing Powder
DCP1005: Fitted Frames Set A

Other:
My Colors Cardstock: Pink Delight
Imagine: VersaMark Ink, VersaFine Ink in Onyx Black
Zig Clean Color Markers: Sweet Almond Pink (200), Emerald Green (048), Green (040)
Scrapbook Adhesives: EZ Runner, Foam Squares
Smooth pink cardstock, green cardstock
Directions:
1. Create the card base with smooth pink cardstock, cut to 4 1/4" x 11."

2. Stamp the whimsical flower all over the front of the base with VersaFine Ink.

3. Loosely color the flowers with the Zig markers listed.

4. Die cut the Large "D" Fitted Frame out of green cardstock.

5. Stamp the sentiment with VersaMark Ink on to Pink Delight cardstock. You may want to stamp it twice because the cardstock is textured.

6. Sprinkle Detail Black Embossing Powder on to the stamped sentiment and heat set.

7. Die cut the sentiment with the Small "D" Fitted Frame.

8. Adhere the green fitted frame with the EZ Runner.

9. Adhere the sentiment layer with foam squares.

I'd love to make a set of this card in several colors to give as a gift to a teacher. Imagine getting a rainbow set of this cheerful card! It wouldn't take very long to make either. If you'd like to see more "Flowers for Spring," head on over to the Stampendous Blog. Thanks so much for stopping by. Have an inspiring day!

Echo Park Blog Hop with Imagine

Greetings! This is my second post for the day. This one is not part of the 31 Days of Halloween, but rather a super-duper blog hop that the Artists in Residence for Imagine are doing with Echo Park . So if you're here for my Day 7 project, please check out the post HERE . But before you do that, scroll on to check out this one. There are prizes up for grabs, so be sure to check out the Imagine Blog as well as the Echo Park Blogs for details. I created my background by applying Dandelion and Tangelo Memento Ink to my brayer. Then I sprayed it with Ink Potion No. 9 to help the colors blend and to act as an extender to keep the inks wet longer. After I rolled the colors out on to watercolor paper and let it dry, I stamped the lovely doily-like image from Echo Park's Simply Sweet Stamp Set with Grape Jelly Memento. I also received the super pretty Heart Doily Designer Die  which I used with a true purple cardstock. But it needed something....and in rolls the super fabul...
