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.!
Things you will need to make this card:
Stamps: Build a Blossom, Thank you Kindly
Inks: Cherry Cobbler
Cardstock: Very Vanilla, Cherry Cobbler,
Punches: Blossom Petals, Large Oval, Scallop Oval

Guess we all need to do this at times.? Have need of a 'Thinking of you' card.
My beloved god-mum (82) has now moved into a local care home so thought would send her a card to show we were all thinking of her.
I have the lovely 'Dawn from 'do stamping with Dawn' to thank for this, as thought the flowers would really cheer my God-mum up.
I stamped 15 petals and punched them out so had enough to make the 3 flowers. I sponged the edges of each of the petals and followed this up by stamping my 5 leaves and punching them out too.
I assembled each of the flowers by punching a 3/4" circle and using this as a base to stick each of the petals onto. Each flower was finished with a 1/2" circle and a pearl for embellishment.
My card base was Old Olive card stock which I embossed, prior to matting the pink and vanilla layers on to it. I made a border trim from a scrap of pink, arranged the flowers as above and tucked in the leaves as needed..
To round it all off I just propped up my computer generated sentiment on its matted oval .
Things you will need to make this card:
Stamps: Build a Blossom
Card stock: Certainly Celery, Blushing Bride, Whisper White
Inks: Blushing Bride, Regal Red, Certainly Celery
Punches: Blossom Petals, Mid Oval, Scalloped Oval, Dotted Scallop Ribbon Border
Other essentials: Vintage Wallpaper Embossing Folder, Pearl Basic Jewels
