I had the gel-a-tins Asian Garden stamp set. I double stamped the grasses in the centre of the layout in olive green and brown and stamped them in olive green around the flowers on the top and bottom of the layout. I also stamped the leaves around the Prima flowers in the centre of the layout onto patterned paper and cut them out for some dimension. The bird stamp is also from the same set.

Berries by Allison Cope
I happen to look at my "Asian Garden" stamp set by Gelatins and realized that the flowers appeared to look a little like raspberries; perfect for our little outing picking wild berries in the mountains. So I masked a few flowers off to make them look like raspberries. I also took the leafy branch and printed them all over my label shape at the top on my page. I love the versatility of this stamp set!

Let me just say that I'm enjoying using these stamps on my layouts more than I thought I ever would. I've mostly only ever used stamps for cardmaking and it's really made me step outside my comfort zone to incorporate these on my layouts. Again, I wanted to do a border and I thought this flower stamp would be nice to cut around for a scalloped edge. And again I used the leaves to add to my flowers. Thanks again to Gelatins for a great product to work with!

I had the letter stamps. I stamped them on green paper, cut them into squares and inked the edges with fushia stazon ink. I then added some bling to the D.

I once again got to use the Gelatins Asian Garden stamps on this. Was determined not to just do the same idea as I did last week... but it worked so well! LOL! 3 colors of grass... blue clouds on pop dots and glittered. Birdie cut out and popped... Added my own sun to complete the look!
Thanks for playing along! You are ROCKING the sketches! Wasn't Allison's sketch a blast to work with? Didn't try it yet? you HAVE to! It's SO much fun!!!
See you next week!! :)
