Vicki Burdick MADE me do it! She did! She made me purchase the Stippled Blossom Stamp Set and I wish I could use it like she does but hey, my first time using it, I think I did ok!? The flowers are meant to look antique and worn. I don't know, I kind of wish I had not used the orange card stock for the base...ugh! But hey, I had fun getting inky!
So then I made the card with a neutral base...I actually think I like the orange base better?
This card was made using the Simply Stampin' Sketch Challenge.
I absolutely love this and the orange one is my favorite.
ReplyDeleteHmmm.....I do love the vintage look of your flower, but I think I like the neutral base the best. Both are lovely, though!
ReplyDeleteToo funny. I made a card the other day and used blue bases and then was thinking I should've used a neutral brown. Hehe. I actually like the second card better, but if you hadn't put it there, I would've loved the orange base. I like how the orange could go to someone that has a sense of whimsy to them, while the neutral fits for any elegant occasion. :) Have a happy day! (Oh, and being forced to buy another stamp set...totally get what you're throwing down. LOL)
ReplyDeleteBoth cards are so pretty..love this stamp! That a hard one..I think I agree with you, I like the orange too.
ReplyDeleteThe orange is great for fall...but I really like the neutral base!
ReplyDeleteLove these Lesley!!! I like them both but my fave is the neutral based one!! You did fantastic with this set!!
ReplyDeleteGreat card, the stippled flowers look like they have glitter on them! Think this stamp set would be perfect for a winter birthday!
ReplyDeleteThanks for playing this week at Simply Stampin'

I've been looking at this set for a while too - but am just not sure I can do it justice. I think I like the orange base best but both are lovely Lesley!
ReplyDeleteDon't think I've spotted this stamp set - both versions are good in their own right but I prefer the more neutral one here.
ReplyDeleteI think you've done a wonderful job with that stamp set! It's on my wish list for sure! I have to admit I'm not an orange lover so the neutral one is my fave - but then again the orange does give a great 'pop'!
ReplyDeleteA great take on our sketch, thanks so much for sharing your fab cards with us at Simply Stampin'! Ruth x
