I thought I’d change my Valentine sampler to an Easter Sampler. I used the Circle Spring, Basket Bunch and Suite Sayings stamp sets along with the matching dies to make this one. The matting is Pear Pizzazz and Calypso Coral. You can click on the image to see the squares. Hugs, Fran

Inky Thanks
Wow! Am I inky? I did this piece on watercolor paper and it was fun! I started on a waterproof mat and smooshed some Melon Mambo ink directly on it. Then some Daffodil Delight and Tangerine Tango. I sprayed it fairly heavily with water until the inks started running together and smooshed my paper into the ink several times until the paper was covered. After I dried it with my heat gun, I sprayed it again with a mister filled with water and let the little droplets form on the ink. Once that dried, I splattered black ink over part of it! Then I embossed the sentiment from Suite Sayings onto the center and embellished with some adhesive dots. My hands were ver colorful all day – but it was fun! Hugs, Fran
Suite Sayings Bakers Box
This is one of my favorite sets in the Occasions Mini catalog – Suite Sayings. It’s all sentiments and greetings and they are really nice AND pretty fonts. For this catalog case, I stamped the sentiment and die cut it using Lots of Labels Framelits. I die cut 2 leaves using the Botanicals Builder Framelits dies and stamped them with the matching Botanical Blooms stamp set. The color in the center of the tag is done with a sponge dauber, Hello Honey and Cajun Craze ink. Hugs, Fran
