We have another Papertrey Ink group post.. and today we are all sharing projects created using the new Stitches & Swirls stamp set. It's SUCH a beautiful set and I know it will not collect dust in my studio!
Here's my first card... I went with a darker, earth toned color scheme.
I really love that the stamp images are so lovely alone... without anything really added to them. The simple pearl centers to the flowers add just a touch of elegance.
Look at the fun flowers in this image... so pretty. Honestly, I can see using these images all year round for most holidays and occasions. Well, maybe not Father's day. :)
Look at this beautiful image I used with the sentiment. There are so many possibilities with this one.
I honestly cannot wait to create with this set again!
This next card was created with the same color combinations... just a little different style. I love when a seemingly obvious background image is strong enough to be a focal point.
I made a faux wood panel then stamped the stitched image onto it. There are some decorative score lines on the bottom to add some balance.
These are so simple I can imagine mass producing them. I've had so much need for thank you cards lately too... so it's very nice to have a quick design that I can replicate in a snap!
I've spied several projects that the other ladies have created using Stitches & Swirls.. my mind is blown... seriously! Here are the links to their blogs!
