Apple Blossom.

This week I chose the beautiful apple blossom stamp of the Vintage Garden Flowers for the Waltzingmouse Sketch Challenge #123. The frame and the sentiment are both from the Vintage Garden Seed Packet stamp set. I put them on foam pads to give them a 3D effect. I stamped a few times the flowers on the border and added a vellum embossed chicken wire on it. I also added some lace, ribbons, twine and a pink button to finish it off.





Here's the great sketch created by Lenet Mos:

    Another stunning entry, Anne-Elise! Love the beautiful shade of pink on this one, and the way you cut out the appleblossoms and placed them in the seed frame. The teeny shovel looks like a silver charm on that bow!

    Always love to visit to see how you are using velum. As always, this one is super lovely. Liked the effect over the design paper. Your image was so beautifully colored, and when I enlarged the picture, it looked like the mat paper was velvet. Just a lovely, elegant card..as always. Shovel charm was the perfect finishing touch on the ribbon. How clever. TFS
