Have you seen the NEW! Release from MY FAVORITE THINGS?
Well ONE of the set’s is called Build a Bloom. LOVE IT!!!
I used the elements in the set to create, 2 cards that are so NOT flowers!
I love when you can use a stamp set in a way that it was not designed for!
Let me know what YOU think of my designs.
The first one I will share is called Ciao Bella!
Isn’t she beautiful! Do you see it? Its a woman-side profile-faceless, PERFECT MFT style!
I used the “s” shaped leaf for her hair, the vase for her hat, and the little flower piece shaped like this- “)” for her upper/lower lip, and neck.
Is that NOT cool?
Next I saw a bird
Again the “s” shaped leaf made the body. The small leaf, made the tail feathers, and wing. The stem became my tree branch. Leaves-obvious. The starburst pattern “*” for the flower centers, made my nest! My button is the sun, and my flower punch, are the flowers on the tree.
I have to say I was quite excited! Not only are the actually flower’s fabulous, but so are the possibilities.
The sentiment is called Essential Sentiments, from the new release as well, and is a MUST have! Well worth every penny! Hello 28 sentiments!!! you can never have enough! If you are just starting out stamping, then this is the set to get.
Thanks for checking in! Lots of goodies becoming available today! So what are YOU getting?
I know I’m off to cyber shop! So Ill spill what I “must have” later!
Tomorrow is Friday-Blogger’s Challenge!
Till then.

Lauren- That is AWESOME!! Designs like that, that show the versatility, make me want to buy the set more 🙂
Very cool Lauren! I never would have seen the woman’s head let alone the bird. Way to show the versatility of this set!
Oh my goodness Lauren! I LOVE how you think outside the box with different stamps! I like when you said, Next I saw a bird….well it does look like a bird! I would NEVER have put it together like you did! Girl…you need to spread your creativity!!
Thanks for sharing more of your wonderful cards!
Those are so awesome! How creative you are! Thanks for sharing! Makes me want to look at things differently!
Both cards are beautiful but hands down the faceless woman is my fav. You always do such a good job. Thanx for sharing with us all the time. Stacy
Truly amazing! Love your creative visions!
Too cute! What a great ideas. I ordered the sentiments from MFT last night just after 9 pm PST.
Holy Moly! You are a creative chick! Those cards are amazing! Talk about thinking “outside the box” you go. Very inspirational as well.
I just purchased 2 MORE sets from Lizzie Anne Designs, love them and their challenges on SCS! Looking into Gina K stamps, haven’t decided yet. But they are doing great things with their DT, I’m sure you heard.
Right this second that is it for purchases. Oh wait I was also looking at some Bellas but I might wait a bit on that one. Have to spread out those purchases 🙂
Thanks for sharing!
