Welcome to our Create with Stamping Friends Inspiration Monday challenges. This week’s inspiration is a path of Lily of the Valley flowers!

LILY OF THE VALLEY

I guess I never really thought about where Lily of the Valley grow naturally! I always think about them as a filler in a flower bouquet! But I’d love to see this under the trees in my backyard! Think I’ll try to grow them there! I created a row of them on today’s card!

Stampin’ Details:

The base is 5-1/2 x 8-1/2 Pool Party cardstock, scored at 4-1/4 and folded.
A 4 x 5-1/4 layer of Valley in Bloom DSP was added on top.
The coordinating plaid was cut 1-1/2 x 4 and adhered down the center.
I used the new Noel Tidings oval Die and cut it from Basic White cardstock, then stamped the lily three times across the front with Basic Black Ink. They were colored with Granny Apple Green, Lemon Lime Twist and Soft Sea Foam Stampin’ Blens. It was added to the front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
I stamped the greeting from Lily of the Valley with Basic Black Ink on Pool Party and cut with the label in the Noel Tidings Dies. It was added to the bottom of the oval with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
Two large green Shimmering Dots were added next to the greeting.
Some Linen Thread was tied in a bow and added to the center stem.

I love to mix different stamps and dies and I’m so happy for the large oval shape in the Noel Tidings Dies! OK, check out Debbie’s Inspiration Monday card over on Create with Stamping Friends!
