Hello stampin' friends...happy Saturday! Welcome to DAY 1 of Sweet 'n Sassy Stamps March Release Blog Hops. If you love flowers and are familiar with our previous two Flower Block stamp sets, you will love the third addition to the Flower Block collection. The blooms in Flower Blocks 3 are perfect for the focal point on your spring stamping projects and can easily be colored or paper pieced.
Today's feature is:
- Stamp set includes 4 images and 4 sentiments
- Set measures approximately 6" x 8"
- The images measure approximately 2 5/8" x 2 5/8"
- Designed by Korin Sutherland
- Stamp set is $26
Here is a sample made with the poppy block:
Creative Nugget: The poppy image was colored twice with Copic Markers. One image was cut out and popped up for dimension. The poppy block was cut with a Spellbinders Classic Square Nestie and mounted to True Black card stock. Several layers of papers from the Fabric Scraps Paper Pad were stitched together to form the card front which was mounted to a Fine Linen card base. A seam binding bow was dyed to match and a hand cut sentiment banner was added. White gel pen accents and a few black pearls finish the card.
