This week’s STAMPlorations cards both started with the one of the STAMPlorations Blushing Blooms ATC floral images.
For the first card, I used the ATC itself as the focal image, pairing it with a Sentiment from STAMPlorations Inspirational #1 Clear Sticker Sentiments.

For the background, I thougtht the leaves in the STAMPlorations Abstract Oats Stencil ere similar to the leaves in the ATC, so I stenciled them using sage ink and then came in over the top with STAMPlorations Found Fragments #3 to add some texty elements. I finished with a scattering of tiny golden gems.
For the second card, I chose one of the panels from STAMPlorations Color Me Blooms Spring Florals Colorables that I thought was similar to the ATC, and I used the ATC colors and design to inspire my coloring.
I’m linking-up my floral card at the Beautiful Blossoms Challenge.

It’s so peaceful to color this beautiful image … and not have to worry at all about the inked outlines being muted or smeared by the coloring.
I added a sentiment from STAMPlorations Hey Sunshine Clear Stickers and a scattering of the same golden gems.
