Artsy Flowers

Do you find that stamps seem to come in the mailbox faster than you can use?! How does that happen? So many stamps, not enough time!

So I ordered this wonderfully artsy flower set from Simon Says Stamp a while back, but I have only made one card with it! Time to get it out again.

I measured out ¼ of a card front on a piece of paper in the stamping platform, and set up the stamps to fit in that area. I stamped once & rotated the card and stamped again. Then I moved it down and repeated it. A lovely quick way to get to get a card front covered.

I painted it with Distress Inks.

Complementary Colours

I was taken by Kim's inspiration card at Muse Challenge. I have taken her ...

• random and rotating stamping
• Banner for the sentiment
• Coloured border

I added Hero Arts Lacquer pen to the dots to add interest.
