Welcome back to our third day of previews of our August stamp releases at The Craft's Meow! Today we're showcasing Nina Brackett's latest designs, and she has outdone herself once again! She calls the first one Folk Art Blooms. This set includes all solid images of 3 different flowers in 2 sizes each, plus various leaves to compliment them. I loved working with this set!
I really have grown to love masking, so I made a card using the masked sentiment technique and used only one of the flower designs in both sizes, some leaves, and one of the centers from another of the flowers. The sentiment is from a set we debuted earlier this release, Potted Garden. This card is one layer, with just the addition of some aqua and yellow pearls.
Nina's 2nd set today is called Jar of Sunshine, and it consists of a canning jar, along with a straw, an lemon/orange slice, a gorgeous spray of roses, and 5 different sentiments in this chalkboard style. I went off the path a bit with my card, remembering my favorite old-fashioned blue canning jars that I treasure.
I used Nina's flower wrap motif from the set, along with some design papers from My Mind's Eye (Indie Chic) and Pebbles (Family Ties), and some cork paper for my scalloped edge.
Don't forget to visit The Craft's Meow Blog and leave a comment there by 8:00 PM PDT this evening for a chance to win both of these sets by Nina!! The random winner will be announced there tomorrow when we unveil our final stamp set for this month.
See you tomorrow!
