The Cutting Cafe (Beautiful Blooms)



We are so excited over at Sew Many Cards to have Regina Easter from The Cutting Cafe sponsoring us again this month.  Talk about some talent....this lady and her design team are AWESOME!  I am honored to get to work with a set called Beautiful Blooms.  This set contains so many beautiful flowers and your choice of different vases, pots and containers plus....different sentiments.  Everything you need to make a beautiful card all in one set.  I printed the bouquet of flowers out and then cut around them (please, don't look too close as there is a reason you don't see me do much fine detail cutting).  I then printed the terra cotta pot out and colored it, then layered on my flowers with dimensionals.  That grass is some scrap green cardstock I had in my stash cut with the new Martha Stewart fringe scissors.  Most of you could do this easily with your regular scissors but as I hinted to above my cutting abilities are seriously lacking....hence why I love all the cutting tools (he! he!).  The cardstock colors in my base are Gina K. Designs Pure Luxury Cardstock in Sweet Corn and SU's Dusty Durango.  The patterned paper I used is from My Mind's Eye Bloom and Grow collection.  The ribbon is American Crafts.  Here are the copics I used:

If you haven't already checked out The Cutting Cafe then be sure to head on over there as you will be seriously motivated.  Also be sure to head on over to Sew Many Challenges to see what we have going on this week!
