A Bit Vintage with the New Sweet 'N Sassy Stamps Release

Hello Everyone!  Can you believe it is already February!?  Well, in the stamping world, The beginning of each month ushers in a new release of awesome stamps at Sweet 'n Sassy Stamps.  This month is no exception and today is~
Day 1 of Sweet 'n Sassy Stamps New Release Blog Hop
Today the DT is thrilled to share the new Bloom & Grow stamp set with you.  This 4"x6" set includes 6 images that can be used together for layering or to create backgrounds.  It also includes 6 beautiful sentiments that have to do with blooming and growing---a lovely new set to get you thinking Spring.


I used the faux watercolor technique on my flowers and then fussy cut them out; die cut a heart card base and sponged around it and the die cut a heart mat and sponged a sun in one of the curves of it.   Sponged a bit around this heart as well.  Next, I added the sentiment and the stems and leaves to the card, as well as some flowers, stamped and spritzed directly on to the card.  Added the fussy cut flowers and then cut the center out of a couple of doilies and adhered these to the edge of the heart.  Lastly, I added the button, bow and sequins.

The Stamp Details-
  • Large Flower Petal image measures approximately 1.5" x 1.5"
  •  Designed by Korin Sutherland
