Fleur Impressions

And more stamped images from my craft room!  These are the Fleur Impressions and Oopsie Daisy flower stamps from The Greetery, arranged in the cute Just Mason Around jar.

I again pulled out the Knit Wits stencil, and used it with some ink blending of Tattered Rose and Worn Lipstick Distress Oxide inks.  Sentiment is Perfect Sentiments from Pinkfresh Studio, gold embossed.

Final Oopsie Daisy

Here is the project that I showed a test run for a few days ago...  I have a nephew getting married soon, and he and his new wife are very supportive of my cardmaking hobby - so I've made them a set of 10 thank you cards, just because.

I worked the kinks out with my practise card, making sure that the layout worked, and then I adjusted my colour combo.  I used about 10 different Distress Oxide inks, on all my different pieces, and did the flower centers with Copic markers.

Stamp sets are all from The Greetery: Oopsie Daisy, Petite Eucalyptus and Seed Catalogue Background.  The Fit to be Tied die is from them also.  The sentiment is an old CTMH set.

I distressed the edges of the card front so that they're a little curled and frayed, which I thought suited the look.  I debated on adding a little blind, but didn't end up going there.

Oopsie Daisy

This is the prototype for a larger project that I'm working on - similar but not quite the same.  I'm happy with the results, though!  Other than the sentiment, all products are from The Greetery:

The background is the Seed Catalogue Background, stamped in Speckled Egg Distress Oxide Ink.

The flowers are from Oopsie Daisy, Petite Eucalyptus and Fleur Impressions.  The bow is the Fit to be Tied Die.

Sentiment is from It's Your Day Sentiments press plate from Spellbinders.

Lots of Love

 I'm starting to assemble a few Valentines, once again using things I've got sitting in my stash.  I stamped a bunch of these Oopsie Daisy flowers from The Greetery several years ago (!!), and am finally using up the last few.  I've also pulled out a Greetery stencil to do some background ink blending with Worn Lipstick and Tattered Rose Distress Oxide inks, and finished them off with a diecut sentiment and jewels from Pinkfresh Studio.

Greetery Bouquets

 When I stamp images like these florals, I often stamp multiples so that they're ready to go for another time.  Today I picked up bits and pieces from 6 different stamp sets from The Greetery, and a few stand alone dies from them as well (love these wood slices!).  Happy to have a couple of generic cards ready to go in my stash.

I used my Beam paints to spatter a little silver and gold paint on my backgrounds, and used some 3D foam adhesive to give them a little dimension.

Wood Slices Part 2

 This die set from The Greetery comes with both a large (yesterday's post!) and a small wood slice die.  So here is pretty much the same card as yesterday, but this one is 5 1/4" square, and uses the smaller flower images from Oopsie Daisy:

I am entering this into the Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge!  It's all about Blooms this week.

Wood Slices

 Check out my new Wood Slices Dies from The Greetery!!  I've been coveting these dies for awhile, and they showed up in my mailbox recently :o)  You can expect to see a lot of them...  I've paired them with all kinds of other Greetery products: Oopsie Daisy, Petite Eucalyptus, Tie One On dies and the sentiment is from Pitcher-esque:

I ink blended some Mowed Lawn ink onto my card base, and added a few black ink splatters and black Nuvo Drops.  All of the inks used are Distress Oxides.

Happy with my first efforts!  Practise does make perfect, though.

Oopsie Daisy

Such a great name for a stamp set.  I made a couple of cards with new (to me!) stamps from The Greetery.  This is Oopsie Daisy, plus Just Mason Around and the Knit Wits stencil on the background:

 I used my Misti to stamp all of the jars and flowers, as they all have multiple stamps involved in creating each image.  It's a great way to stamp multiples, so I have enough extra supplies to do 5 or 6 more cards.

 I did some ink blending with Tattered Rose and Worn Lipstick to create my background, and went over a portion of it using my Knit Wits stencil and the same colours.  I made two versions, with slightly different arrangements, and then added the sentiment from the Art Impressions Exclusive Daisy set.
