A Ginger Snap! A Trio of Flowers!

The stamp set Penned & Painted produces beautiful floral images that are so realistic.  I tried the set out with this card.

Masking the flowers allowed me to stamp a trio close together.  Although I should have stamped the top flower a little closer to the flower on the bottom.  The stamp set is a triple stamp set which means that you can stamp in different shades of ink or you can stamp off using the same color ink.

I chose different color inks for my flowers & leaves.  As you can see, I used Memento Tuxedo Black Ink for the centers of my flowers and for the outline of the lady bugs.  A Real Red Stampin' Write Marker was all I needed to complete the lady bugs.

Thanks strt

The "dots" are from a stamp found in Birthday Blooms.  I inked the stamp with Calypso Coral Ink & stamped off prior to stamping the dots twice in random order.  The strip of Washi Tape is from the Affectionately Yours Designer Washi Tape.  The "thanks" is from the Watercolor Wishes Card Kit (included as part of the kit).  Although I put my kit together some time ago, I still continue to use the stamp set.  I really like the font.

I am anxious to use the Fresh Fruit stamp set and the gorgeous Fruit Stand Designer Series Paper again.  It is a fun combo with so many of the new 3/8" Ruched Ribbon to match.
