Stamps with Color Pencils

Have  I mentioned how much I love the Bloom by Bloom stamp set?  This botanical set with a little bit of a MOD look really caught my eye.  It really adds a nice modern pop to any stamping. Because of the fresh graphics it also leaves options open to change the effect each bloom gives.  In my card below, I used colored pencils to ad a little depth to this card.  And, if that weren't enough, I added a little pizzaz with some wink of stella.  Because of the look of these blooms it reminds me a bit of Nordic designs. 


The large blooms were from Bloom by Bloom but, the smaller additions were from Share What
you Do stamp set and a combination of old Paper Pumpkin stamps.  This is why Paper Pumpkin 
so so awesome.  In each kit you get a stamp set that you can keep using.  Finally, the sentiment is from the new Itty Bitty Birthdays Cling Stamp Set.

Below, I have links to what I used.  As with most of my cards I used an A2 envelope and 5 1/2" x 4 1/4" Card base. Unless I otherwise say differently, I use whisper white cardstock and envelopes.

Stampin' Pad colors I used were: Lovely Lipstick, Mint Macaron, Shaded Spruce, Blushing Bride, Calypso Coral, Lemon Lime Twist and Pumpkin Pie
