DONT MISS THE MYTIME MAIL here. Winner drawn on Monday.
When I got my Borders & Corners sets from Paper Trey, the thing that drew me in first was all the pretty little flowers from the sets! Go figure :D. I ordered the circle, rectangle, and square sets.
So when it came time to create (before my stamps were even placed in their CD case) I began my bouquet.
I used the pot from her Green Thumb set. I then took the little leaf image and stamped it in wasabi, and celery classic SU! ink. To make the flowers POP and color over the leaves I used versamagic ink.
I randomly stamped several litte flower buds.
I then punched a hole using my GIGA Scallop circle. I layered the acetate (that came with the set), behind the circle. See image in close up view.
I stamped the dotted image in the acetate, as well as several flowers. It gave the bouquet some dimension, and a cool look.
The rest is pretty obvious. I liked the little punched border. The flowers/scalloped edge complimented the design (at least “I” think it did).
This is getting sent off to a friend. Hope she likes it.

Great card. I love the “french country” look it has
WOW….I love, love, LOVE this Lauren! The flowers stamped on the acetate over the ‘original’ image is FABULOUS….such added dimension, and I too, think the punched border is the perfect touch.
beautifully done my dear, beautifully done!
Wowzers Lauren. I just may have to consider those papertrey scallop sets.
Lauren – yep – love the card. The stamping on acetate definitely gives dimension to the bouquet – great idea and wonderful job! I love the ideas you are sharing – thanks so much for them! I am sure your friend will love this card!
