PTI blog hop - country meadow picnic

This month's PTI blog hop has this image as inspiration:



Immediately I wanted to create something with lots of cream, spring moss and touches of red/pink.

First I stamped the sprig images in versamark and heat embossed, then I loaded up distress inks on a large acrylic block, saturated it with a mister, and then layed it on top of the embossed images.  The patterned paper is my favourite sheet from Botanical by Prima.

Supplies; Stamps - Larger than life, Tag-its #5, Mat stack 1 (sentiment), Paper - cream, Botanical PP (Prima), kraft, Other - Larger than life die, doily details die, Berry sorbet satin ribbon, Antique linen and Shabby shutters distress inks, lace, versamark, clear embossing powder.

Flower bouquet

With my new dies!  I had fun arranging the flowers 'just so'.  The flowers were coloured in with markers so I could add different shades (mainly on the leaves).

Supplies; Stamps - Larger than life, Postmarks, Paper - White, Bitty dot spring moss PP, Botanicals (Prima), Soft stone, Other - Larger than life dies, Mat stack 4 die, SU markers, pink seam binding ribbon.
