Now that I've made all of the formal introductions, let's get onto the projects!

For my first card I couldn't wait to dig out my Copies and add some color to the Cutaway Tags: Summer die. It ha such a gorgeous form to it and it really comes to life as you layer on your favorite color schemes.

I chose to do blues and purples, being sure to add shading and definition with a few different hues of each color. I also went back in and added details with a white gel pen.

The sentiment, also included in the coordinating stamp set, fits perfectly across the center strip.

• STAMPS: Cutaway Tags: Summer, Textile Impressions
• INK: True Black
• PAPER: Stamper's Select White, Spring Rain
• DIES: Cutaway Tags: Summer die
• OTHER: Comic Markers, white gel pen

 

Garden Party is a new elegant floral set designed by Dawn McVey. It's hard not to make a pretty card when you start putting all of the various elements together.

I layered shades of Melon Berry, Harvest Gold, Summer Sunrise and Saffron Spice, a new favorite color combination.

The sentiment from the new Quoted: True Friends set made a great companion for the florals.

• STAMPS: Garden Party, Quoted: True Friends
• INK: Melon Berry, Harvest Gold, Saffron Spice, Summer Sunrise, Cocoa Bean
• PAPER: Stamper's Select White, Harvest Gold

 

Heather always inspires me with her Kraft stamping so I thought it was fitting to pair the technique up with her new Ways to Say collection.

The floral elements were layered at each of the corners. The detail and uniqueness of the leaves and flowers makes it a joy to stamp with.

• STAMPS: Garden Party
• INK: Autumn Rose, Scarlet Jewel, Canyon Clay, Olive Twist
• PAPER: Classic Kraft, Stamper's Select White

Lizzie's new Petal Box comes together easily with just two cuts.

I am in love with the coordinating tags she included with the die collection, they are the perfect scale to tie onto the box making projects come together quickly. I stamped this tag with elements from Cutaway Tags: Summer and added the sentiment from Humming Along.

• STAMPS: Cutaway Tags: Summer, Humming Along, Textile Impressions

Laurie Schmidlin is joining me today, featuring Cutaway Tags: Summer and Petal Box dies

Laurie always has a way with color and this beauty demonstrates that perfectly. The small dots of black added around the florals really help to connect the black die-cut tag to the rest of the project.

You can get stunning results with your floral stamps by keeping things simple and monochromatic. The Kraft and Hawaiian Shores combo used here is an excellent example of this.
