STYLISED FLOWERS

Hi Everyone

I hope you have had a good day.

Mr Heart and I called at a local garden centre today for a wander round in the lovely weather (which also just happens to have a craft department too)!!  LOL!!!

Whilst there I saw a lovely card on display .. .. and this is my version of it:




This used:

Image:  Indigo Blu "SFL" Stylised Flowers
Sentiment:  Pink Petticoat
X-Cut Punch:  Butterfly
Memento Ink Pads:  Cantaloupe, Rose Bud and Pear Tart
My Trusty Sewing Machine
Pearls from My Stash Box

The sample I saw had perfect circles of colour, no stitching, no butterflies or pearls and of course no heart!!

I don't have a suitable circle stamp so I trimmed a very rough circle from the excess rubber that I trimmed from my stamp.  I don't like having lots of rubber around my images and always trim them as close to the image as I dare!!

Quite pleased with the result and no doubt other versions will be making an appearance.

Catch you again tomorrow with my snippets.

Love

  18. Hi Jules,

    Its been a while since I left comments on your fab cards but despite that I have been looking, 'Oohing and Aaghing (is that how you spell those words??)
    and certainly inspired.

    This card is stunning, the flower stamp is fab, I love the coloured circles, (a great use of your rubber off cuts), admire how you add those perfect finishing touches, and above all how you choose colours. Must say yours is one blog that I always go to for inspiration. Thanks Jules.

    Love Sheila x
