Hello! I'm so excited to be helping Catherine Pooler celebrate her online store opening later today! The store will officially open this afternoon and to be notified please subscribe to her newsletter on the Catherine Pooler blog. She will send out an email when the store opens and you will get free tutorials, PDFs, downloads, etc.for being a subscriber!
When the stamp set from SugarPea Designs was released in the Stamp Of Approval box many months ago, I was in love. I loved the flowers and those leaves!!! Heart leaves? Swoon! I knew this set was going to be a favorite!
The flowers were white heat embossed onto watercolor paper. I loosely watercolored them with many different colors of Distress Inks for shading and adding depth. They don't have to be perfect.....just have fun and don't worry about staying in the lines! All the images were die cut with the coordinating dies. My sentiment comes from a stamp and die from CAS-UAL Fridays Stamps called All About You. There are so many ways to use this set! My panel was adhered with foam adhesive and a few Sparkling Clear Sequins from Pretty Pink Posh were added.
PRIZES:
