Bloom Where You're Planted

Happy Wednesday!! I hope you are having a wonderful week!! I've been out of town for a few days so I'm hoping this posts when it is supposed to :) It's my turn to post on the Craftin Desert Divas blog and I have a card to share with you using the new Blooming For You stamp set.

The papers are from Prima's Natures Garden stack. The edges were distressed with a DIA. The strip of butterflies down the side is Tim Holtz Tissue Tape.

The stamp is a Tim Holtz Spring Sprung. It was stamped with Wendy Vecchi Fern Green Archival Ink and then stamped again without reinking for s ghosting effect. The butterflies are a punch and they were covered with Doodlebug Designs Sugar Coating. The crinkle ribbon is from my sweet friend Karen of Little Scrap Pieces. The button is a Die-Versions Wee Petites Button die.

The frame is from The Paper Studio Spare Parts. Bloom Where You're Planted is from the Blooming for You stamp set. I heat embossed the sentiment with white embossing powder to match the frame.

You can purchase this stamp set, as well as all of the stamps at the Craftin Desert Divas Shop. And we would love to see your projects using any of the stamp sets in our Craftin Desert Divas Gallery.

I am entering this in the following challenges:

1. Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge - Anything Goes
2. DL.Art - July Linky
3. Word Art Wednesday - Anything Goes

 Thanks so much for stopping by!! Have a great day :)

A Spellbinders Classic Ovals Large was cut out of corrugated cardboard and dry-brushed with white paint. Tulle was added for a bit of added texture.

Another Spellbinders Classic Ovals Large was added next. The shabby picture frame is from The Paper Studio Spare Parts.The image was cut from the paper. The flowers are Wild Orchid Crafts, and the ribbon is from May Arts. The button is a Die-Versions Button die.

Lil' Inker Stitched Flags were cut for the "Happy Birthday" sentiments. It was embossed with Stampin' Up Embossing Powder in Olive.
