Hello friends! I’m excited to be joining Altenew in a blog hop celebrating their Gardens Around the World release. I have lots of inspiration to share with you.
One of my favorites from the release is the Morning Flowers stamp set.
It has a very whimsical look to it.
I chose some bright colors for my flowers and then ink blended a background with Coral Bliss and Warm Sunshine using a blending brush.
I flicked the background with some gold metallic watercolor.
This card also features the Morning Flowers set but this time for the background, I lightly ink blended with a light blue.
I stamped this butterfly in a light grey ink using the Meadow Reflections stamp.
Another favorite of mine from the release is the Castle Garden set where I heat embossed the image and then ink blended over the top.
Before attaching this gorgeous set onto a card front, I stamped the image in a light grey ink onto the card front.
Hope you enjoyed today’s inspiration! I loved creating with these sets!

Hi from Queensland, Australia. These cards are so beautiful. I love creating cards that only take a few steps to make them. Thanks for sharing.
The way you interchanged the Morning Flower & Meadow Reflections together in a card was brilliant. The Castle Garden is one that really stood out, loved your idea on heat embossing and inking over the images. Beautifully done!

Beautiful Castle Garden creation!
Lovely cards! I really like the castle garden set- so pretty stamped, colored and die cut. I love the curved grouping but also the single flowers.
Your flower clusters are so artful! I especially like the blue castle garden grouping. Thank you.
I can’t pick a favourite they are all beautiful. But I think the hold embossed and the blending after is my favorite. Almost looks like a spray of orchids at first glance.
Love the florals in all the colors!
