JustRite Garden Tour 2 Blog Hop

Good Morning!! Today is the Garden Tour II Blog Hop for JustRite Stampers and believe me you won't want to miss it! The JustRite Design Team has been busy creating wonderful things to share with you and there will be some sneak peeks too! Please be sure to visit all the JustRite Design Team Members, for today's Garden Tour II Blog Hop. I will have a link list to all of the blogs at the bottom of this post.
The stamp images I am using for today's card are from the JustRite stamp set Beautiful Blossoms. The Beautiful Blossoms set includes 4 Designer Centers of beautiful floral images including a geranium, dog wood, daisies and peony and it also includes 4 Interchangeable Borders. The Beautiful Blossom set fits the 2-1/4'' x 3-1/16'' Oval Stamper. Here is a close up of the stamp images I used.Here is the card I created for the JustRite Garden Tour II Blog Hop. I was very happy with how this card turned out, it has a soft vintage feel (that I love) with a little punch of color. I started by stamping the images with brown ink and coloring the flower images with Copic markers. Then I colored the leaves with Copic markers.Here is the finished piece. After I colored the image then I used the Wizard™ and the Classic Ovals Large S4-110 die template from Spellbinders™ to cut/emboss the oval shape. I also used the Classic Scalloped Ovals Large S4-111 die template to cut/emboss the scalloped oval for a mat. For the scalloped oval I used Cocoa Post-it Craft Paper and sanded the edges to reveal the white core and layered the pieces with foam tape. For the background paper I used Bashful Post-it Craft Paper and the Flower Silhouette Impressabilities™ I2-1015 from Spellbinders™ to emboss the paper. Then I sanded to reveal the white core and inked around the edges. I added some vintage buttons towards the bottom of the card. I love going to the antique shop and picking up jars of buttons! You just never know what you might get!Lastly I added some trim and a few tiny pearls to the bottom of the card.
