Team Stamp It Spring Blog Hop

 

 Welcome to Team Stamp It monthly blog hop. This month's theme is Spring. And spring for me is associated with many beautiful soft colored flowers. Stampin Up! offers two of them - there are many stamp sets with floral images and several colors that come to mind right away (like Blushing Bride, Soft Sky, So Saffron, Mint Macaron - just to name a few).
Today I decided to use Botanical Blooms set and framelits. I am absolute in love with this combo. The framelit makes it so easy to create flowers! And let me tell you - and now I am all about quick and easy, haha.

Blushing Bride and Wisteria Wonder:

Soft Sky and Mint Macaron:

 And of course - So Saffron is my favorite:

Closer look of the flower - you can see I sponged centers with darker ink and used Signo white pen on black centers:

What do you think? Which color is your favorite? Leave me a comment and you will be entered in a drawing:

 Thank You for stopping by. Here is the list to continue:

Happy Stamping!

Botanical Blooms Calendar Instructions

Happy Wednesday!
Hope you have nice and relaxing time after the holidays. It is my favorite time of the year - just after Christmas and till first few days of January. It always feels so calm and relaxing, no more last minute things to complete and prepare, the calendar is not crazy busy yet and anymore, holiday spirit is still in the air. It is also time to look back for the past year and makes plans for new one.
Today I would like to share with you fun project - small desk calendar. I made one for our last blog hop and promised to share instructions. Well, I made several more - this time using another new products from Ocassions Catalog.
