Stamp Set Spotlight - Natures Walk



I thought I'd start some regular features on my blog... which will include Stamp Set Spotlight, and Techniques Tuesday ( and some more which I've got ideas for but not thought of a name yet!!)







Natures Walk is a set of 7 stamps available in wood or clear mount. They can be used to make fresh looking floral cards or taken further with different techniques to create a vintage look.







I've started with a piece of baja breeze A4 cardstock, cut it in half and then scored one half to make myself an A6 cardblank. I've made a mat of pear pizzazz and punched with the scallop border punch. I've trimmed a piece of very vanilla cardstock to fit inside.







Using baja breeze and pear pizzazz markers I have coloured in the floral stamp and stamped onto the card and then a second generation stamp (giving a ligher image). Continue until you have the desired amount of flowers. Stamp the sentiment (this one is from Sincere Saluations), and using a dauber lightly dab ink around the edge of the vanilla to soften it. Attach the seam binding ribbon and tie a bow. Attach the layers together.


Hope you like my design :-) Check out here tomorrow for the Stampin Up August special offer!!!
