Basic Wisteria Lotus Blossom III

Today I have the final card in the set of three cards to share with you.


Here's is a look at the entire set.

All three cards use the same color combo of inks: Wisteria Wonder , Elegant EggplantBlackberry Bliss for the lotus flower*, Wild Wasabi & Mossy Meadow for the ferns and stem and finally,  Sahara Sand for the Hardwood background.

*NOTE: I have found it much easier to stamp the flower image by doing it backwards from what is suggested on page 6 in the SAB catalog...I stamp the largest, solid background in the lightest color first and finish with the smallest textured piece in the darkest ink. For me, it's much easier to line up each layer. Also, if using the same color of ink (stamped off) to create the flower, I found that the detail wasn't as good for me starting with the smallest, detailed stamp first as suggested.

Now that you have seen the entire set, do you have a favorite?

Thanks for visiting...have a GREAT weekend!

Basic Wisteria Lotus Blossom II

I'm back today to share the second card in my three card set using the Butterfly Basics and Lotus Blossoms stamp sets.

This one is the most masculine of the set because I used more Mossy Meadow instead of Wisteria Wonder & Blackberry Bliss when it came to the card stock. I also eliminated the bow and just went with a strip of Mossy Meadow Stitched Ribbon instead.

Check back to see the full set of cards and more info on how I created them in my next post. Until then, scroll down to see the first card in this set.

Thanks for visiting today!

Basic Wisteria Lotus Blossom I

During my last stamping session I stamped using my favorite stamp set from the Occasions Catalog...Butterfly Basics and paired it up with my favorite stamp set from the Sale-a-Bration catalog...Lotus Blossom. Since I was using favorites...I figured I may as well use some of my favorite colors too, right? So, I had to go with some purple...Blackberry BlissWisteria Wonder to be exact. Here's what I came up with...


I ended up making a set of three coordinating cards...all a little different. I'll share the rest of them this week...so make sure to check back.


Please take note: Wednesday, February 18th will be the last day I can fulfill an order for the kits to create my Butterfly Basics Watercolor Collage Set


If you have been considering ordering one of my kits to create this pretty set, please do so before Wednesday. The tutorials will continue to be available. Thanks so much to everyone who has ordered one of my kits or tutorials so far!

Lotus Blossom Card Set

This pretty new set will be available in just a few days. During Sale-A-Bration you can select the Lotus Blossom set for FREE with a $50 order!

I was playing around stamping the blossom in different colors, to see which I liked best. I couldn't decide, so I made a set using them all.

The flower is made up of 3 images that you stamp on top of each other to create the blossom. It's easy to line up because the stamps are photopolymer. I used just one color ink for each blossom, but stamped off on the largest background image to have more contrast.
The Whisper White background panel is embossed with the pretty new Spring Flowers Embossing Folder. I used these colors: Strawberry Slush, Rich Razzleberry, Crushed Curry, Calypso Coral & Wild Wasabi.

You will be able to order from the Occasions Catalog starting on January 6th...which is also the start of Sale-a-Bration! I'll have more to share with you from both of these catalogs soon..so check back!
