Inspired Stamps, All about Flowers!


This week the Inspired Stamps Design Team was asked to make cards with beautiful flowers! Of course my favorite bloggers will know that I am absolutely obsessed with the new Butterflies and Blooms stamp set, so it wasn't too hard for me to pick out the stamps I wanted to use! This week I used a technique called paper piecing that Antoinette, the talented owner of Inspired stamps, did a tutorial on this week. You can find the tutorial by clicking here. I used random bright colored scraps for the flowers that I had laying on my desk, always a good feeling to use them up! I Copic colored the leaves and the butterfly, then adhered the butterfly with foam and added some bling. I then cut a piece of cardstock and cut out a scalloped circle with a Nestabilities die and framed the flowers and butterfly with it. Finished off the card with a sentiment flag with bling and the card was complete.

Thank you so much for stopping by today, I really appreciate it!

Inky and glittery fingers for all!
