Stamp Review Crew: Hand-Penned Petals

 

The Stamp Review Crew is featuring Hand-Penned Petals today.  The possibilities with this floral bundle are endless.  I used the coordinating dies and that delightfully sketchy "Thanks" to create my card. The sweet stitched scalloped border die  worked perfectly with the sketch from the TGIF Challenge this week!

I know the rest of the crew has amazing creations to share - I can guarantee no two projects will be the same!

If you missed Lou Kitzelman's wonderful work head back there.......

Next go visit Charlet Mallett to see her delightful creations!

Here's the sketch I used from TGIF.............

Fusion: Thank You

 

No better way to say thank you than with a pup, a balloon and some flowers!  A hand written note to say thank you will never go out of style!

I used a die from the Timeless Tropical to make my sweet flowers!

Always fun to combine the photo and the sketch at Fusion!  Hope you join us!

Congrats to Grads....FMS485

 

Sending congrats to all the grads this year!  It has not been an easy year for a whole list of reasons. So "Congrats!" to the kids who masked up and attended school or who zoomed and face-timed and managed to complete all the requirements for graduation one way or another! 

My daughter went fully remote in her job as a college advisor and has about 40 seniors that she worked with headed off to school in the fall.  She put in her yearly order for graduation cards - I started this week - 12 done, 28 to go! 

I also used the Beautiful World Suite to create a batch of ten. 

 

Judy's simple sketch has endless possibilities!  Have fun with it at Freshly Made Sketches!

Stamps: Graduation Caps (IO)

Ink: Distress, Versafine Black

Paper: Basic White, Tim Holtz Watercolor

Finally....Flowers! FMS484

 

Finally!  The flowers are starting to bloom here in the north country!  Definitely a welcome sight!  I am not a gardener but I so appreciate my neighbors who are.  My porch flowers are like the ones on the card - in pots purchased from the greenhouse every spring!

I love those bright sprinkles that were part of  the Ice Cream Corner Suite. They add a wonderful little pop of color to any project!

  

Amy's sketch this week is oh so sweet!  Hope you find time to play at Freshly Made Sketches!
