I was inspired by the colour challenge at Hand Stamped Sentiments (HSSCC187) this week – such a pretty colour combination…
I got out my inks and made this pretty bookmark using the stippled blossoms stamp set by Stampin’ Up, in strawberry slush, pistachio pudding and blushing bride inks …
Don’t you just love getting a new stamp set? I love all my stamp sets (they are stroked and used often) but getting a new one to play with is always such fun! So this is my latest favourite thanks to my lovely friend, Vicky, from Crafting Clare’s Paper Moments (thank you Vicky – I love you for this!) And oh my word! What a lovely stamp set it is! The pretty, floral images in this two-step stamp set are just gorgeous…
I stamped a variety of verses from the Trust God stamp set in early espresso ink, it’s a little less harsh than using black and tones more easily with the soft pastel colours of the flowers. The fonts in the sentiments are so pretty – love all that gorgeous calligraphy …
These bookmarks would make a great little thank you gift, or maybe a get well wish for a friend.
I love how they turned out, so stamped some more in soft sky and smoky slate too …
I’m not sure which is my favourite, but I think maybe the pink … or the blue … or the pink … What about you?
