Most people who know me, know that my green fingers come from ink and not gardening!

I have been ‘working’ my way through any stamp sets and dies or punches that I haven’t used yet, or in a long time.

For this card I used BASKET OF BLOOMS STAMP SET for the first time and BEAUTY ABOUNDS only a couple of times, ages ago.

Sometimes all you need to use are a few colours – CRUMB CAKE, OLD OLIVE, TERRACOTTA TILE and WHISPER WHITE.

The pots were stamped and fussy cut before I added some CLEAR WINK OF STELLA along the ‘scratches’ on the right hand side of each pot. I also stamped the ribbon on just one pot.

The different leaves were stamped and coloured using the STAMPIN’ BLENDS.

And, just like my green thumbs, if you know me you know I don’t mind using dimensionals. So, all the pots were popped up to add some height. Then I wrapped some LINEN THREAD around the Whisper White layer.

The Crumb Cake layer was stamped sing the small bokeh stamp from the BEAUTY ABOUNDS stamp set.

This card, along with a pot plant, would be a great gift to give with someone who has done something special for you.

Who would you give it to?

Thanks for popping by … happy stamping.

On Monday, I shared a card I made using the ROOTED IN NATURE STAMP SET and coordinating NATURE’S ROOTS DIES. I had lots of stamped, die cut and embossed leaves left over so I used them for a little box of goodies.

The ACETATE CARD BOXES are great for packaging 3″x 3″ cards and envelopes, but they can also be used to package up treats for friends, family or colleagues.

It is quick and easy to make a belly band to wrap around the box.

The new STAMPIN’ SEAL PLUS is perfect to use because it is so strong, so it ensures the band won’t come apart.

One of my favourite greetings is this one – BE STRONG, BE HAPPY, BE YOU”.

As you can see, these sweet treats fit easily into the box.
