Joy of Sets Blog Hop--May Flowers

The Joy of Sets Blog Hop for May is on flowers of course! I think this month is synonymous with flowers, spring and soft colors. I chose to use a stamp set that is retiring, but that I will be keeping in my collection. It is called Here’s to Strong Women and the “You’ve Got This Girl” is really perfect with Mother’s Day coming up. I know several moms that could use a card with this sentiment. Everyone needs to know from time to time that they have ‘got this’!

I hope you enjoyed what the pioneer of this Blog Hop, Fiona Whitehead, shared with you this morning!

The base of this card is Petal Pink and the layering piece is ran through the Subtle 3D Embossing Folder. The strip of Designer Series Paper is from the Best Dressed collection. The flowers are stamped from the Dressed to Impress stamp set (found in the Occasions Catalogue). The leaves are coloured with the Old Olive Blends but the flowers are filled in with the coordinating stamps in the set in Highland Heather and Lovely Lipstick. I also went over them with Wink of Stella.

You’ve Got This Girl is stamped in Pretty Peacock and die cut with the Stitched So Sweetly dies. I flicked the Wink of Stella over top of this panel as well. I also used the coordinating All Dressed Up Dies to die cut the flowers. And finally, the sequins are from the Iridescent Sequins collection.
