I was looking for something a little different to create for my stamp club and came across the blossom builders set in the Occasions mini. I have to admit that I completely overlooked these until a fellow demonstrator did a tictac holder at one of our team meetings. They are so awesome! All you have to do is punch them out and glue them down! And there is a solid color on one side and a print on the other. Plus there are those fantastic pink rhinestones too! So I used the card in the mini (changed very little!) as one of my projects. This was a really easy card to put together and the ladies loved the flowers!
While there are banner strips in the kit, I used very vanilla paper and snipped the ends. The sentiment is from Party This Way which is on the retiring list : ( I also used a circle as the base of my flower.
Card Recipe: Cardstock-baja breeze, very vanilla, lucky limeade, Ink-baja breeze, Stamp Set-Party This Way, Accessories-Blossom Builders, word window punch, 1 3/4 circle punch, square lattice folder
This. Is. Gorgeous!! Love the soft colors and that lovely layered flower. The pop of embossing is a great touch! I'm bummed that Party This Way is retiring, too. It is a great b'day set and I love the playful font. Hopefully something even more fun will replace it, right? :)
ReplyDeleteOh YES! Love that beautiful flower on here too. So pretty.
