Bloom By Bloom - quick & simple

Here are the details for the first project this week using a stamp set called Bloom By Bloom.

To create a background for our card we used Lovely Lipstick can and the Dot to Dot TIEF.

I love this bold textured design and the mix of straight and slightly wonky dots - I'm sure I will be using it a lot!

We used one of the Rectangle Stitched Framelits to create a panel and added 'thanks' which is another from another framelits set called Well Written.

These little punches are so much fun - the leaves are tiny and a bit fiddly; the Take Your Pick Tool made light work of placing them just where I wanted them to be.

The larger stamped flower was inked up in Calypso Coral and them we added Lovely Lipstick with a Sponge Dauber to the edges.  It was then fussy cut and adhered with a Dimensional.  We used once of the punches to add the centre and finished the flower off with a trio of jewels.  The smalled flowers were punched from Pineapple Punch with a Night of Navy punched centre.

We used the dotty border stamp to decorate the inside (and the envelope).

Here is the completed card and envelope.

I was joined today by two new ladies; Carol and Ann who had not crafted with me before.

Cutting out the flower required a lot of concentration - they did a great job!

I have one further C & C session this week, if you would like to join me to make this card and another, you can all find the details here.  Don't forget that if you place a £25 plus order on Thursday you can craft for free!

Details of the products I used for this project can be found below. 

Hope you can join me for a crafty coffee soon.
