CCMC437 Blooms & Wishes

December 15, 2016 By Connie | 4 Comments

Another week has rolled by and it is Thursday again and time for the Create with Connie and Mary Thursday challenge!  I used this week’s design to create a very CAS design on my card.  It took the longest to cut out the flower and leaves!

Here’s my card using the stamp set Blooms & Wishes.  Love that an “all occasion” stamp set can be converted into a Christmas theme just by apply colors, a Christmas greeting and DSP!

Here are the details:

  • The base is 5-1/2 x 8-1/2 Cherry Cobbler cardstock, scored at 5-1/2 and folded.
  • On top is a 4 x 5-1/4 layer of Whisper White.
  • Across the White is a 1/2″ strip of Presents & Pinecones Designer Paper (LOVE that stripe!).
  • Under the DSP is the greeting from Holly Berry Happiness (I also LOVE the greetings in this set!) stamped in Emerald Envy Ink.
  • The flower from Blooms & Wishes was stamped full strength with Real Red Ink, then turned slightly and stamped off again to give a fullness to the bloom.  It was hand-cut out.
  • The leaves are the same stamp image, inked with Emerald Envy and stamped, then hand-cut out the petals individually for the leaves.  They were adhered with Tombow Monoadhesive Glue to the back of the flowers.
  • In the center is a Metal Rimmed Pearl.
  • The flower was popped up on the front of the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals!

I love stamping cards, altering 3D items and making little favors. I've been stamping for over 20 years and will have my 19th year Stampin' Up! anniversary in early May. I love being part of something that sparks my creativity and hear people comment, "you MADE this?" I also enjoy sharing that passion with others in my classes! If you live anywhere in the Delaware, Dublin, Powell, Lewis Center, Hilliard or surrounding Columbus, Ohio areas, join us! I love to meet new stamping friends. Email me for a current class schedule... I'm adding new classes all the time!
