Good morning!
I've been lucky enough this week, to have created once again, using Melanie Muenchinger's newest set, "Stately Flowers 2". What a beautiful set of stamps. I'm going to keep this post short so that you can enjoy Melanie's beautiful flowers!
First up, is an easel card that I created, using the Goldenrod stamp. The image was stamped directly onto a page from an old book, and colored with Copic Markers. I had planned to do some distressing, but this matched the DP from Authentique better. This is one of those strange cards that does not photograph well, but looks so pretty in real life!

I also have a gift card box to share. This is an amazing template by Adella Rossol of Creations by AR.
The image was stamped directly onto white GKD Pure Luxury CS, and colored with Copic Markers.
The sides only on the white panel were adhered, leaving room for a ribbon to slide through.
Here is what it looks like from the front:

Now, look how cute it is when it's opened up!
