Thank you so much for visiting my blog today!! Make sure to come back tomorrow for day two!

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!
