Fast Flowers

Busy busy---working on the house this weekend. We are getting LOTS done!!!

Since I don't have much time today---here is a ten minute card I made using Framed Flowers from Gina K Designs.

I stamped the frame and then the grass stamp from the set. Then I inked only the stems and leaves from one of the flower bunches and stamped it on top of the grass. I added the primas and punched a Nestability scalloped rectangle and placed it underneath the strip of patterned paper. I layered the flower panel on top and stamped the sentiment.

Easy peasy!


Materials used: Stamps-Framed Flowers (Carolyn King distributed by Gina K Designs); cardstock-white, olive; designer paper-SU!; ink-black, olive, choc chip; primas; brads (The Paper Studio and SU!); Cuttlebug and nestability dies; dimensionals (SU!); corner rounder punch (SU!).



Thanks for stopping by!

Beautiful 10 minute card. It takes me more than 10 minutes just to decide what paper I want to use, then the ink, etc, etc. Thanks for the great card.

What a cute idea! So true what Sara said. I was going to say, your 10 minutes is like mine in dog years, that would make mine 70 minutes, lol. Or something like that....

Definitely a good idea! And now I am inspired to pull out an old flower stamp I have and give it new life with my primas (that also need to be used again!).

It's not fair. 10 minutes?? It would take me that long to clear off space to stamp! Gorgeous.
