Build A Blossom

I wish all of our stamps had matching punches. For this card I stamped the petals from build a blossom with pretty in pink ink on pink pirouette cardstock. I used the new blossom petal punch to punch all the petals out in seconds. The leaves are stamped with certainly celery ink on celery paper and punched out. The base is pear pizzazz with a layer of pink pirouette that I ran through my Big Shot with the square lattice embossing folder after I used the lace punch across the bottom. I added a 1/4 inch strip of pear pizzazz across the bottom, too. To get the flower to pop up I used my snips and curled the petals like you curl ribbon. The bottom layer of petals are flat. The curled layer is attached in the center with snail. Then I added the smaller layer of petals with more snail. They are not curled. I added an antique brad to hold it all together. I used teeny tiny wishes and the scallop oval punch along with the two smallest oval punches for thinking of you. So pretty, so simple!!

  1. Love your card and I agree with you. I wish more stamps had matching punches. My girls complain a lot if I have them cutting too much out. TFS
