Botanical Blooms in Winter


I AM BACK AND READY TO ROLL!!!

I figured what way better to get back into posting to my blog then by starting with a DOstamper Stars Thursday Challenge!!

There is so much going on with Stampin' Up! right now, just not sure where to begin telling you everything.  As I go through this post you will see so many new products that have come out in the Occasions Catalog and it is Sale-A-Bration time!  WOW SO EXCITING!


When I seen the colors to this challenge I instantly thought of the Botanical Blooms stamp set and matching Framelits.  Being that it has been so blistering cold here in MN, I thought it would be nice to have flowers and greenery.  Just needed to bring a smile to our faces here in MN.  
I am falling in love with this framelit set and the NEW grunge stamp set.

Wondering where how I made the great edge on the card????  It is included in the new framelits that just came out in the Occasions Catalog called the Botanical Builder Framelits.  What is great about this framelit set it has a stamp set to match which is called Botanical Booms.  And when you buy these 2 items and the Designer Series Paper that goes with this, you can buy all 3 items in a bundle and SAVE 15%.  It is so great that Stampin' Up! offers us the bundles at a discount.  

Did you happen to notice the spectacular flower on the card?  This is also in the Botanical Builder framelits.  And yes, the flower is all 1 piece!  For the 2 tone look of the flower I took an Aqua Painter and the Rose Red Ink and colored for a darker tone.  For the leaves I used the stamp set Botanical Blooms to put the lines in the leaf.  And then cut them using the framelits again.  If you look a little closer you can see a little grunge going on in the background, this is a new stamp set called Timeless Textures.   LOVE - LOVE this set!! I am so into the grunge look.  The base of the card is Soft Suede and the flower is Blushing Bride.  Did you happen to notice the Glimmer paper as well?!?  I know!  Color is Blushing Bride.
