My Favorite Things just had a new release. One of the stamp sets in the release grabbed my attention because it is flowers and I could color them - win! It is called Gathered With Love. Here is an image:
I love these posies - the prettiest flowers ever! I also love the little tags you can add and the ribbon to decorate the jar. Then there are several stamps you can put inside the tags. Just cute all the way around! Here is my card:
I stamped the vase of flowers with Intense Black Ink on white cardstock. I stamped the bow over the jar and one of the little tags with a heart on it hanging from the bow. I then colored it in with colored pencils. I use a white Uniball gel pen on the edges of the petals so they look more white. I used a pale gray pencil on the edges of the jar to keep it clear with just shading. It doesn't have a set of dies and I got pencil on the background, so I fussy cut around it.
I die-cut a piece of Ranger Watercolor Paper with a rectangle die. I then painted it with Atlantis Burst and Cherry Bomb Nuvo Shimmer Powders using them with a lot of water so they were really light. I kept some areas white and added some brush strokes (when it was dry) and flicked some paint over it (while it was wet). I attached this piece to a white cardstock card base.
I used foam tape behind the cut out vase of flowers and attached that to the center of the card background. I then cut apart teh "sending you love" sentiment and stamped that next to the vase with Intense Black Ink. I added some Nuvo Drops in 3 colors - Pink Orchid Metallic, Rhubarb Crumble Metallic, and Aqua Plains Jewel.
There are so many cute products in the new MFT Release, so go check them out at Simon Says Stamp! This Gathered With Love stamp set was my favorite, but there are lots that I want to get my hands on! Thanks so much for visiting today! Suzy
