Springtime Flower Fest

I feel like I haven't gotten enough of the Flower Fest stamp set, and it's already retiring!  Today I am featuring it one more time...

Peach Parfait is another great color from the 2010-2012 In Color collection that will be retiring.  It is a wonderful soft orange that goes well with many other colors.  The Butterfly Punch, the 5-Petal Flower Punch and the Eyelet Border Punch are also on the retiring list.  The sentiment from You're Cherished is retiring as well.

This is a quick and easy card to make.  Just stamp and punch, run the Whisper White c.s. through the Big Shot in the embossing folder,  add some ribbon, arrange the flowers and butterfly (I added a body" of baker's twine to the butterfly) and stick on a few pearls.  Wa-la!  A fun and colorful card!

It's been feeling like Spring!  And I am in the mood to create with flowers.  The inspiration for my layout came from this week's Paper Player's Challenge you see here:

I was excited to use the Flower Fest stamp set again.  It has been sitting on the shelf patiently waiting...

Flower Fest - PPA113

The challenge at Pals Paper Arts this week is to make a project using heat embossing as the technique.  Coincidently, I used heat embossing on my project last week which you can see HERE, but since I love the look, I was happy to make a new, totally different card:

Melon Mambo and Wild Wasabi embossing powder outlines the flowers and leaves, and to get the soft color inside, I daubed with Stampin' Pastels.  The sentiment is also embossed in keeping with the theme.

I love how this card turned out, and can't wait to send it to my friend.  I know she is going to love it!
