Bold Flower Background

Starting off your week with a happy, simple card, just says (shouts!) "Hi!"

This bold set of stamps from the Floral Frenzy kit is so fun for making your own backgrounds with different size flowers, circles and centers! Today I used completely different colors from in the kit, although I did use the Back Onyx and Pure Luxury White CS(which are in the kit!). Inks are SU! Real Red and Old Olive, and Memento Tuxedo Black. I offset my focal point for a nice "rule of thirds" design and punched out the polka dot centers with my 1/2" circle punch to create some little buttons to pop up and center over the flowers n the right to accent the mat. like they're tacking it down. These 6 petal flowers "nest" so nicely toge her when you stamp a pattern of them in rows offsetting them (see the bottom?) A grid line blocks make placement easy! Placing your focal point flower(s) outside of the mat really makes it seem like it's growing! (I'm *told* punches! for all the folowers in this "Bold Flowers" set will be available this week in THE STORE(wink!) , so I'm kind of foaming at the mouth over that!!!)


Have a wonderful day! New release Gina K Designs sneak peeks in just one week!!!

Expect shorter posts the next couple days most likely, I'm having terrible back pain (since Wednesday, ugh!!) and can't sit for more than a minute or two (standing while I type this) you'll be okay without "the usual blah blah", right???????? (yes, I stamped this over a week ago!
