It's that time again for another Stamping with the Stars Inspiration Hop. Each month my upline leader, Dawn Olchefske, challenges her team members to blog and/or post on Facebook our interpretation of a card sketch she gives us. Here is the sketch for this month's sketch inspiration.
And, here is my card!
I fell in love with the Abigail Rose suite (found on page 56-57 in the annual catalog). It reminds me so much of the retired Magnolia Lane, which has been my#1 favorite of all my stamp sets. This suite comes with the stamp set, gorgeous designer series paper and a lovely natural finish ribbon.
The flower stamp is large and could be used alone, but I decided to add another leaf cluster on the right and the silver leaves tucked under the rose at the top and bottom. The rose, leaves and baby's breath were all colored using the wonderful Stampin' Blends. I like how using both the light and dark blends give it depth. I added a bit of bling with the Elegant Faceted Gems on the top right side of the card. These come in three colors, including Petal Pink, which matches how I colored the rose.
Another favorite bundle is the Charming Sentiment bundle (found on page 38 in the annual catalog). This set is a game changer! There are so many different sentiment and the dies that actually die cuts around the sentiment.
