Handpicked Bouquet

Here is the second stamp set out of my new arrivals from Altenew. I think this is my favourite stamp set of the moment! 

This is my second stamped flower (see the first below - it was my first attempt and choice of inks). I have paired it with the lace die.  


I added some Copic colouring to the blue petals as there are no extra layering stamps for those flowers.



As I looked at the finished card, I noticed the holes in the lace and thought I could thread some embroidery cotton through to bring in the pink colour.

I also changed the orientation.

These 2 cards make me so happy. I can't wait to send them out.

  2. Love that you did two orientations of the design, Janet. Both are wonderful and it was a great idea to add the ribbon to one. Thanks for sharing your cards with us at Addicted to Stamps and More.
