The Stamp Review Crew: Petite Petals Edition


Welcome to another edition of The Stamp Review Crew!  This time we are all sharing projects made with the cute little flower set Petite Petals. It has a coordinating punch that makes it really easy to use.  I chose this beautiful color combination from colourQ to use on my cards.  
I thought these were pretty unique colors to use on a flower card. Not your typical pinks and purples, that's for sure!  Here are the cards that I came up with.  My backgrounds are made by putting So Saffron and Hello Honey ink directly onto a clear block, spritzing it with water and then stamping it onto my cardstock. I finished off the background on this first card by stamping some So Saffron flowers onto it.  I had lots of fun punching out the little flowers for my accents! 
 I really liked the way this next background turned out, but it was crooked on my cardstock, so I ended up cutting it out for something different and matting it with a distressed/embossed piece of Soft Suede cardstock. That's the new bokeh embossing folder if you didn't recognize it!
 Thanks for stopping by!  Click on the links below to continue on the hop, either forwards or backwards!  Or if you get lost, all of the links are at the bottom!

    What a great technique, Shana. I am definitely going to tuck this away for future project. I was trying to figure out how you did that background. Now I can't wait to try it! Beautiful!

    Back to my catalog for me, I didn't we have a bokeh folder. I'll have to look for it. Your cards are very pretty. I'll have to visit the blog more often.
