Heart Bouquet

Here's another play with Concord & 9th's Everyday Bouquet Turnabout stamps.


supplies: white, petunia, and Surf Blue card, vellum, Everyday Bouquet Turnabout stamp set, Altenew Mountain Mist, Bamboo, Pink Diamond, and Limestone mini inks, Simon's Small Doily and (retired) Lots of Hearts die and sentiment from (retired) Butterly Friends, Spellbinders Hemstitch Rectangle, adhesive foam squares to pop up heart

The delicate details of the stamps look nice in pastels, I think.  After I'd chosen my ink colors and stamped the design, I tried to find some cardstock to match them.  I really wanted to bring in the grey, but nothing was right until I tried using vellum, and that worked for me.  Here's a closer shot for you to see better.  I also like that the details of the vellum heart pick up on the hemstitched border, and how it adds a frilly look without detracting from the stamped design.


As always, thanks for stopping by today.
