Long Stem Florals

I have made a couple cards using the beautiful stamp/die/stencil set from Simon Says Stamp!

These long stem florals are soooo pretty!  I used all four of the flowers...the first three on this first card.  I stamped, die cut, and colored the flowers, then layered.  I adhered them to the card panel, and added a stamped, die cut, and layered the sentiment.  I was almost going to make it a thank you card, but I liked the longer thinking of you sentiment, that went over the edges, rather than the shorter Thank You...but both are wonderful!   Here's a close up...

The second one, the last of the four flowers, solo...

I did the same as the first flowers, and opted to used the stencil as a background for the flower.  I brushed on ink, then adhered the flower to the panel.  I used white enamel dots for some bling, but colored them with the purple marker that I used for the flower.  I love to have dots that match whatever I have colored, and have found that coloring the dots is a wonderful way to get exact colors!  Here's a close up...

This set is so much fun to create with, beautiful and artsy flowers!!  Hope you have had a great week...the weekend is almost here!  Hope you have a fun one, please take care!

Thanks for visiting me today!! Hugs!! Lisa
