Last Week's Card & Cuppa - Natural Botanicals Stamp Set

Last week’s Card & Cuppa class was my first session in 4 weeks. This was due to Easter, my holiday and then the Spring Bank Holiday.

For the design, I chose florals from the Natural Botanicals Stamp Set. This item has carried over to the new Annual Catalogue that launched while I was away.

All of the stamping for this project is in Basic Beige onto Lemon Lolly Cardstock.

The background flowers were stamped and then coloured using Watercolor Pencils. We didn’t blend the colouring as using a Blender Pen would have made the colours look ‘muddy’ due to the details in the stamped images.

Wink of Stella was used in the centre of each flower.

A strip of Daffodil Delight Cardstock was used as a layer for the sentiment from the Simply Said Stamp Set. I’m so happy this stamp set has also carried over to the Annual Catalogue, as I use it quite a lot.

The ends were trimmed off before adding the thinner stamped piece on top.

Finally, some Antique Pearls were added for a touch of bling.

I couldn’t decide on a colour way for this project so designed one in yellow and one in pink. The attendees then decided which version they wanted to make.

Which colour would you have chosen?
