Hey there! Wow, I think this post's title is the longer I've ever written. And get ready for a long post too, with LOTS of ideas for stretching your Waffle Flower Crafts stamps. For today's projects, I combined stamps from the April and June release. All the sets work beautifully together!
First, a card using Flower Circles and Bowtiful stamp sets.
I started stamping the banner strings using the long stem in Flower Circles. I just curved the stamp on the clear block and stamped it a few times in grey. Then I went in with the stars cluster from Bowtiful.
The banners were created with the semicircle from Flower Circles, stamped in assorted colors. I used pigment ink for this, because it's opaque. If I had used dye ink, the starry background would show "under" the banners. Hope that makes sense :) Once I had my banner bunting, I trimmed it and adhered with foam tape to the card base, where I stamped the sentiment from Bowtiful.
I also used a Wink of Stella pen (in clear glitter) to add shine to the banners. Here's the shiny stuff in all it's glory.
Next, I made two tags with the Surface - Tag Starter Kit die and well, I'm specially excited about this first one!
I turned the bucket from Hey Mr stamp set into a rustic chic planter, ha! The tiny stems that are starting to grow were made heat embossing the small rays stamp from Flower Circles and the sentiment is also from that set.
The second tag would be perfect for attaching to a handmade gift, specially if it is something you sew or knitted,
I white heat embossed the beautiful sewing machine from Notions stamp set, combined with the "handmade" sentiment from Surface - Tag stamp set. The stitched lines were stamped using the stitched outline tag shape from the same set. The woodgrain patterned paper is from an Amy Tangerine paper pad.
That's it from me today! I hope you leave my blog inspired to combine your Waffle Flower sets for endless creative choices :) Thanks for visiting!
Great projects! Your banners are stamped so perfectly and I love how you used the bucket!
