And what does the Lord require of you but to do justly, and to love kindness
and mercy, and to humble yourself and walk humbly with your God? (Micah 6:8)

Floral Greetings

Hello everyone!  Just sharing a few cards from the new Sweet 'n Sassy Stamps February release.  SNSS just added two beautiful floral sets designed by Gracie Chavez and Nina Bracket and three Bible journaling sets, one of which is a new set in the Jesus collection.  The inspiration for these cards came from several challenges.


Creative Nugget:  One of the images from the beautiful Floral Greetings set was white embossed on water color paper. Kuretake watercolors were used to color the flowers on this background panel.  The same flower was stamped on Neenah card stock with Rich Cocoa Memento ink, colored with Copic Markers, and fussy cut. The sentiment is just one of seven included in the set.  The design is from Freshly Made Sketches but I did flip the orientation.
My second card was made using the new Pretty Potted Florals stamp set designed by Nina Bracket.

Creative Nugget:  The design for this card came from CAS(E) This Sketch.  A frame was cut from green card stock and Penny Black paper.  The flower pot was colored with Copic Markers and accents added with a white gel pen.  The sentiment is another one included in the Floral Greetings set and was white embossed on a vellum banner.  A bow and some Bitty Sparkles were added to finish the card.
Here are the new stamp sets from the Sweet 'n Sassy Stamps Store used to make these cards:
All of these pretty flowers are making me yearn for Spring!

These cards will be entered in the following Challenges:


Thanks so much for stopping by…have a wonderful day!
