Lost Lagoon, Mint Macaron and Tip Top Taupe

I've been playing with some of the new In Colors — I'm sure you've been able to tell.
I saw a similar card on Pinterest (I am sorry, I forgot to write down their name).
I loved the Lost Lagoon and Mint Macaron combination but felt it was
missing just a little, so I added the Tip Top Taupe.
I love this new color as a neutral accent.
This is the second card we did at my Awesomely Artistic Class.
Lost Lagoon FlowersI used the Heavy Whisper White cardstock for the base — this stuff is awesome.
I added a layer of Tip Top Taupe and Mint Macaron.
I stamped the flower image onto a piece of Sticky Note and cut around it.
Next I stamped the flower image with Island Indigo.  I put the Sticky Note
mask over the flower and stamped the "burlap" image above and below
the flowers.  I used the small fern image with Tip Top Taupe that is stamped
off and added a few ferns around the flower image.
I added a few "splotches" also with Top Top Taupe that is stamped off.
Last I stamped a dragonfly with Mint Macaron and cut out with my Paper Snips.
I added a small dimensional to the back and adhered to the card front.

Awesome Island Indigo Flowers

Last night was my Awesomely Artistic stamp class.
Everyone got the stamp set and made four cards.
There are so many possibilities when using this stamp set.
Island Indigo FlowersThe first card is an Easel Card.
The card base is Island Indigo with Smoky Slate layers.
I used the Regals DSP Stack to layer on the Smoky Slate cardstock.
The flower image was stamped with Stazon and colored
with a blender pen and ink pads — Island Indigo for the flowers,
So Safron for the flower centers and Old Olive for the leaves.

Blackberry Wild Flowers

Blackberry Bliss and Wild About Flowers.
That's today's combo.
I used the Wild About Flowers stamp set and the Fresh Market DSP
Blackberry Wild FlowerThe designer paper I used is from the Fresh Market DSP.
I'm not much into the fruit side of the paper but the opposite side
has great options — two gingham patterns and a few other fun prints.
My card base is of course Blackberry Bliss.  I added a layer of
Very Vanilla and then the Blackberry Bliss Gingham DSP.
I added a 3" x 3" square of Blackberry Bliss to the card front
with dimensionals.  On a 1" x 2 1/2" piece of Very Vanilla I stamped
"you made my day" from A Dozen Thoughts stamp set.
I tucked this piece under the Blackberry Bliss square.
On another piece of Very Vanilla I stamped the leaves of the flowers
with Pear Pizzazz and the flowers with Blackberry Bliss.
Then I punched it out with the 2 1/2" Circle Punch.

This is another Fast & Fabulous card.
Order your stamp set and designer paper now and you could have
a bunch of cards made lickety split.
