Chrysanthemum stamp...many ways

When I lose my mojo, I stamp an image onto a sheet of paper multiple times and colour it in as and

when I feel like. This particular sheet took me a while!!

When it was done...for a long time, I wondered what to do with it.Then one day my mojo was back!!! I made 5 cards using one A4 size sheet of stamped chrysanthemum images! 

the Chrysanthemum stamp is one of my own.

The sentiments (stamped with memento rich cocoa) are from Stampendous and backgrounds are cling stamps from Hero Arts stamped with Memories Acid free Dye ink in Sand. I have used Tim Holtz distress inks to enhance the cards . Cords, Ribbons and buttons are from my stash.I really am proud of this project! 

Thanks for stopping by...

Love to hear from you...

Enjoy!!

Happiness and Chocolate

I just love this sentiment from Stampendous! 

To go with it I started with a kraft card base.I absolutely love Kraft card for its versatility...it goes with every colour!

I created the background with  the Harlequin background stamp from Impression Obsession  stamped in Sand from Memories acid free dye ink.

The yummy chocolate ice cream die cuts are from Cottage cutz. The smiley button, I thought tied everything together nicely.

The sentiment card is embossed with harlequin embossing folder from Sizzix and distressed with Tim Holtz distress inks.

The sentiment is heat embossed in Chestnut.
