Stippled Blossoms Variations



This would be one of my favourite stamps - and one I had glossed over in the current catty. Thankfully someone posted some gorgeous cards on their blog using Stippled Blossoms and it then became a 'must-have!"


Here are some examples of the versatility of Stippled Blossoms: 




This one is stamped in Elegant Eggplant and Wisteria Wonder ink, on Wisteria Wonder cardstock.
The sentiment in Elegant Eggplant showcases the wonderful, single stamp Just Thinking, which is cut out using the Window Frames framelit. I like to use a suitably stamped Top Note die cut for the message inside cards and this one is also stamped, using the smaller flower from Stippled Blossoms. 



A similar card,  stamped in Regal Rose and Pretty in Pink, on Pink Pirouette cardstock. The Just Thinking sentiment is stamped in Wild Wasabi ink.



Another variation, this time stamped in Marina Mist and Bashful Blue inks, the roses are fussy-cut and adhered to the card with foam dots; the leaves are stamped using the retired Pear Pizzazz ink, and Certainly Celery. The sentiment is from the Vintage Verses, SAB stamp set, cut out with the Apothecary Accents framelit. The card front is embossed with the Lacy Brocade folder. Papillon Potpourri butterfly punched with the Bitty Butterfly punch from SAB 2013. 



Regal Rose and Pretty in Pink combination above, displaying the gorgeous sentiment stamp, Beautiful Birthday, which would be one of the best value stamps in the entire Stampin' Up! catalogue. The Happy Birthday sentiment has been cut out using a framelit from the Ovals Collection, backed with retired Blushing Bride DSP cut out with the Labels framelit. Leaves in Wild Wasabi. Cardstock is Pink Pirouette. 


The card below uses the Stippled Blossom stamps again with the Regal Rose and Petty in Pink combination, with the variation of the Apothecary Art stamp on watercolor paper, using the markers Melon Mambo, Regal Rose and Pear Pizzazz for the watercoloring.
