Kre8tors Blog Hop - May Floral Theme

Hello, and welcome to another Kre8tors Blog Hop!

This month our theme is Floral!
I chose to do a card with some very small flowers from the Special Day Dies ( it coordinates with the Special Someone stamp set - with the little raccoon) This will be carried over for the 2020-2021 Annual Catalog.

I used the Very Versailles vine stamp and fussy cut the vine out.  That was a bit tedious but I really don't mind fussy cutting if I am only going to make a couple of these cards. I wanted to give the effect of a trailing vine of flowers.
I used my sponge brayer and inked up some Whisper White Card stock in both shades of purples for the flowers and another piece with Pear Pizazz for the sentiment.

The Sending Hugs sentiment is from the Perfectly Framed stamp set which coordinates with the Ornate Frame Dies I used for the sentiment layers.
The Brick & Mortar 3D embossing folder gives the background some wonderful texture and I highlighted it just a bit by dabbing on some Gray Granite ink.

Some Metallic Pearls and White Crinkled Seam Binding Ribbon add those extra touches.
I hope you enjoyed my Floral Card as much as I enjoyed making it!!
If you have any questions about Stampin' Up! or how I made this card, please let me know - I would be happy to help you.

May Flowers Table

All of our April Showers did bring May Flowers!  I could not help but use some on my table before I planted them outside.

 I had this beautiful April Cornell yellow and pink table cloth that I bought a while back, I kept thinking of it as I was roaming the nursery and choosing flowers. 
When I got them home, the table just fell in place.

Just a pretty mix of pink and yellow!

a little bit of baby's breath potted in peat pots for each place setting






 


I am glad my flowers took a day or two to rest on my table before going outside, because I am sad to report that since planting my flowers that a good portion of them became bunny food just after I planted them!
Sometimes I think it is unfortunate that my dog has taken such a liking to all the bunnies in our yard!

I hope you are able to stop and enjoy some of the flowers around you!
