I have fallen head over heel over the new Embrace Life stamp set and Ginger Blossom Designer Paper. I had so much fun making a card and tin for my hostess party on Jan. 8th. I am so glad I ordered several stamp sets and both DP's from the preview catty. I did outline the rose blossom, stem and sentiment with my sakura glaze pen. Such an easy way to emboss without heating and your colors show thru. The card is a simple 4 1/4" x 4 1/4" design to go with the more difficult (but not much) decor. tin. Also used the glaze pen on the flower and scallop dots on the tin. Mod Podge made the tin so easy to assemble. Hope you Enjoy as much as I did making this project for my girls to make and take. TFL......
The tin was from my friend leslierich. She gets them from work...lucky us :-)

Oh Nancy, this is so lovely. I ordered this set and can't wait to get it. Love the sakura pen technique- gotta put that on my list. (However, one of my resolutions is to use the stuff I already have and stop buying, buying and buying more stuff.) Anyway, this is beautiful - great job.
