April Stamp of the Month

The April Stamp of the Month is entitled "Flower Pot". This is a set of 16 images that are really "spring-like". Aren't we all ready for a few flowers after the long cold winter? Absolutely!
This set is perfect for making wonderful Birthday, Easter, Mother's Day, Thinking of You.....and MANY other occasions. Remember, the April SOTM is only available in April

Feel free to call or e-mail me with ANY questions you may have. Have a wonderful Easter!













Below is a thank you card made using one of my favorite paper packets, "Caboodle". The flower pot was chalked and I used markers to color the flowers & leaves. Quick and Easy!












I finally used my sewing machine to zig-zag the vertical strip of Colonial White cardstock to the piece of Chocolate cardstock. It was really easy.....I see people using stitching all the time but this is my first attempt at it and it worked! I used Blush (pink) in the marker and ribbon.





Below I actually stamped the three pots on background/texture papers, so there was no coloring needed for the pots. I did color the flowers and then cut them out and "arranged" them in their pots.













I stamped the "window" stamp on my card and then cut the window (square) out with a craft knife. I then also stamped the shutters again on Brown Bag cardstock and cut them out. I attached the shutters to the window and glued the edges only. How about that, I am also a builder! This is a fund card as you can add your sentiment inside so that it shows on the front.
