SU's new Awash With Flowers set was waiting for me when I got home from work on Friday, so I just HAD to play with it right away. I've had my eye on this REALLY old Sketch Challenge Forums at Splitcoaststampers for a while and knew that this set would work great with it. What do you think?
I started by stamping the flowers' outlines with Basic Black ink onto Whisper White cs using the Masking Technique. Masking - Basic Tutorials at Splitcoaststampers I drew in their stems because I wanted to use this bigger leaf with this image. I used Real Red, Pretty In Pink and Old Olive to fill in the images. I tore this piece and adhered it to Pretty In Pink cs, spritzed it with Sahara Sand, added the silver eyelets and Basic Black 1/4" Grosgrain ribbons. I used my Stamp-A-Ma-Jig to stamp the sentiment with Basic Black ink and adhered this panel to the Basic Black card base. Finally, I added the flat-back pearls to the flowers with Mini Glue Dots.

I love how you've done this. You might actually sell me on this set! I wish (haha) it was possible to wishRAK for 2step stamps like this without making you do all the work... ;)
