Market Street Stamps Block Party

This is a consolation card. I was SO excited about the free digi that is over at Market Street Stamps this week (it's a really cute little camper image). I had all my papers picked out (CTMH Cruisin collection), and then....technology issues. Can't get my printer to work. SO disappointed!

I had to console myself with this little card. It's a 4x4 card, and uses the Faith in You stamp set.

The frame and circle piece were cut using the Cricut Art Philosophy cartridge and I colored it with Gingersnap Smooch Spritz.

The vase was stamped on a retired CTMH paper and then cut out. I also added some shading using my blending pen.

The flowers are from a May Arts flower trim. I cut them out and then used Plumb Thumb Mister Hueys and the Gingernsap Smooch Spritz to add color. I used a large 3L Dodz adhesive dot to adhere the flowers. First I attached them to the dot, creating a cluster, and then attached the whole thing to the center piece.



Pretty simple card. No sentiment on this one, just lots of color.

Thanks for coming by. Hope you are having a great weekend!
