Hello Stampin’ Friends,

I hope you had a wonderful weekend.  Mine was good … I had one of my Technique Club groups this Saturday morning.  I was asked if I had the stamp set “Blooming with Kindness”, my response was … “why yes I do”.  So today’s card share is a card that I created using this beautiful stamp set.

The card itself is quite simple to create.  I began by inking up the flower image with VersaMark™ and then heat embossing with “Clear” Embossing powder.  Once embossed, I inked up a sponge dauber with Pink Pirouette ink and applied it over the clear embossed flower.  The flower appears magically, and gives the card a soft glow.

I paired up the Pink Pirouette with Early Espresso … the stark contrast of colors blend so beautifully together.  I didn’t want to stamp on the Espresso but I thought that it still needed something.  That something was texture … so I used the Delicate Designs Embossing Folder and ran the lace scallop down the side.

The word “Hope” is part of the “Blooming with Kindness” stamp set, and is part of the reason I bought it.  I love the greetings and the font… so pretty.  I used the Large Oval punch for the greeting and the Scallop Oval to mat our greeting.

This card was a Make -n- Take from one of my Star’s Meeting, I was showcasing embossing techniques.  This is a form of the “Emboss Resist” technique.

Sandy my friend… so this is the card I created with the stamp set, I hope you and the rest of my readers enjoyed it.

Thank you so much for stopping by.  Have a great week!
