Flowers Fair

This large background stamp, Flower Fair is an On-Line Exclusive.  We used it Monday to make this beautiful card.

We started with a card base of Basic White Thick and added a layer of Blackberry bliss.  We used a piece of Woodgrain Wonders Designer Series Paper and stamped the flowers.  It was adhered to the Blackberry Bliss piece and then to the card base.  Our card was almost done except for embellishments and a sentiment.  We used the Heartfelt Hexagon Punch and stamped the sentiment with Blackberry Bliss ink.  You might think that is ribbon behind the sentiment piece, but actually it is two pieces of Blackberry Bliss cardstock punched out with the Three Banner Punch.  Each piece was then folded in half and adhered to the sentiment piece to achieve this look.  I think it is pretty cool.  How about you?

Stamping has been the last thing on my mind since I got home from Long Beach.  Resting, resting, resting has been about all I have done.  I guess I did not realize how tired I really was after On Stage and my airport adventure.  Hopefully my energy comes back soon. Today John has an eye appointment so there will be no resting or stamping today.  I am hopeful that I can stay awake long enough to watch the Iowa State basketball game and hope for another miraculous finish just like the Hawks yesterday!  It would be awesome to have two Iowa school in the Elite Eight!

Every day is a gift . . . make the most of the gift you have been given today!!

Happy Stamping!!
