In My Garden

 Simon Says Stamp "Summer Flowers"



The stamp I used is a Simon Says Stamp called Summer Flowers.  I stamped and gold embossed the images onto Bristol Smooth paper and colored them with Zig Markers.  It was nice that I actually have these flowers in my garden, particularly the bird of paradise, as it helped me with my color choices.

Then I used my ScanNCut machine to cut a couple of flowers and leaves and was happy that it cut nicely without the white border surrounding the image.  

Lastly, I added a frame cut with the Simon Says Stamp Stitched Rectangles Die.  The sentiment is Fiskar's "Essential Sayings".

Thank you so much for stopping by.  I really appreciate it!

Merry Everything

No, I'm not building my Christmas card stash early this year, lol, just sharing a card I made last year but didn't have the chance to post.  Hopefully I'll start making my cards earlier this year so I won't have to resort to mailing store-bought cards.  :(

Stamping this multi-layered bell took some practice but the Misti made it easier.

Thanks for looking!
