This is called Botanical Blooms, and it's a beauty. The set itself is large, with lots and lots of flower and leaf options. AND there is a matching set of framelits so layering all these images is easy-peasy! AND there is gorgeous Designer Series Paper to match! Wowsa! What is better than that?
So let's take a look at the first card I made using my new goodies:
This card used minimal stamping, but lots of cutting. And it was SO easy! See those flowers? All cut with the framelits. See the leaves? Yup, framelits--NO fussy cutting! LOVE IT!
I stamped Thank YOU in Pistachio Pudding (and the so much in Crumb Cake), and layered it on a piece of Pistachio Pudding card stock. This was layered onto the Crumb Cake stripes from the Neutrals Designer Series Paper Stack. And it was all adhered to a Watermelon Wonder base.
Now for the flowers: The leaves were stamped on Pistachio Pudding card stock in matching ink and then cut with framelits. The flower was not stamped at all; one of the framelits actually cuts the inside AND the outside of the flower, allowing you to pop up the inside for a little added texture.
Same here: leaves stamped and cut, flowers just cut and layered. So quick and easy!
I used a coordinating pattern from the paper stack to add a little pizzazz to the back of my envelope, and added two Pearls Basic Jewels to the insides of my flowers, and called it a day.
