Blossom Punching Two-step

hi all

No this isn't an updated Old Tyme dance step - but my endeavours to use  my Blossom Petals punch and matching Build a Blossom stamp set...  and give them a last time airing. I shall be really sorry to have to say good bye to these I have to say.

I needed a thank you card and couldn't resist giving them a final outing for the purpose.
I chose Cherry Cobbler as my colour scheme with Very Vanilla - and with matching ink, toning designer series paper, seam binding, a glimmer brad and oodles of inspiration available on how to do this - I am really pleased with how it all came together.

I 'stamped off' my large petals first on to spare paper and then onto the vanilla card stock to lighten the colour - then stamped them all  again using my stamp-a-majic to line up the more detailed stamp on each of them. I used one of the 'Thank you Kindly' stamps for my sentiment, propped up on dimensionals, and finished it all  with a strip of seam binding and a glimmer brad bow.

I opted to leave the inside quite plain and just used one of the smaller stamps from the set, repeated roughly in a round  to make a small flower, not exactly very visible but its there.!

Inks: Cherry Cobbler
Cardstock: Very Vanilla, Cherry Cobbler,
