Who knew that Mixed Bunch would become my favorite set out of the Occasions Mini Catalog? I sure didn't, but it definitely has! It's so versatile, especially when combined with the Blossom Punch, to make all sorts of beautiful paper flower embellishments!
CASEd from Stampin' Success Magazine & Jodi Geers from last Sunday's Showcase
The delicate designs on two of the Mixed Bunch stamps are so pretty when the are embossed with White Embossing Powder, then punched with the Blossom Punch. I used Blushing Bride, Basic Gray and either Baja Breeze or Pear Pizzazz card stock for the flowers on these Two Cool cards. The background patterns are from the Twitterpated Designer Series Paper.
The centers are images from the same set, also embossed, then punched out with the 3/4" Circle Punch and popped up with Dimensionals. Each flower is accented with either Pearl Jewels or a Large Pearl Jewel.
You'll notice that the first card has some leaves that were cut from Pear Pizzazz card stock with the 5-Petal Flower Punch, then trimmed to one or two leaves.
The lovely Pleated Ribbon adds a soft texture and a punch of color on card #2. Sentiments are from the Everyday Elegance Sale-A-Bration stamp set.
This card design is definitely going to be one of my choices for workshops for next month! All of the elements go together surprisingly quickly with the punches! Plus, it's a great "Think Spring" card with all the soft, pastel shades!
Just a reminder...there are still a few dates left for a March workshop or private class before the end of the awesome Sale-A-Bration promotion! Visit my Calendar of Events to pick out a date, then contact me today!
