Well I am doing two posts today because I am a bit late posting this. My first Stampers Club was last Friday, and my next one is this Friday, so only some of you got sneak peaks! I focused in on the Bloomin Beautiful stamp set which I just fell in love with! The images are so perfect for painting, as well as for showing an elegant style!
This first card shows popping up, as well as going outside the box.
Recipe:
Stamps: Bloomin Beautiful, Flannel Plaid BG
ink: Soft Sky, Blue Bayou, Staz-on, Basic Brown, Guava, Pomegranate, Old Olive, Not Quite Navy, Artichoke
paper: Soft Sky, Chocolate Chip, Groovy Guava, Whisper White, Afternoon Tea DP
Other: Pop-up dots, Blender pens, Dazzling Diamonds, Chocolate Chip marker
Image was stamped and then a box was traced around leaving a section of flowers above the box line. Image was stamped 2 more times. Sections were colored, cut and then adhered in layers, with the highest layer being the bee. Coloring was done with ink and blender pen. Dazzling Diamond was dotted in all the flower centers.
This next card was using only Bloomin Beautiful.
Recipe:

I haven’t done this blossom in red yet, and I was right….it looks great in red. I especially like the way you added a bit of shading behind the stem. Effective!!! I also love how you have the bee on the “blossom” – I haven’t used him yet and I really want to because he’s so cute. Joan
WOW! I bet they LOVED their projects. The red rose card is the most absolute BEST card I’ve seen using this set – stupendous! (like my new adjective?)
All really pretty, but my fav is the middle one. Gorgeous! Love how it’s embossed and the red is so rich and striking…nice how you added the ribbon with it too.
