Eastern Blooms Kiwi Kiss Pumpkin Pie



Apply ink using sponge daubers to the 3 flowers in a row from the Eastern Blooms set. This way you can colour the flowers individually, making them whichever colour you want. Stamp image on whisper white card.
The image on left is kiwi kiss, middle is tempting turquoise and on right is pumpkin pie. These colours go well together. I stamped the greeting from One of a Kind in the bottom right hand corner. I then tied a piece of tempting turquoise ribbon around the middle.
Layer whisper white onto pumpkin pie. On the base card (kiwi kiss) stamp the same flowers using kiwi kiss ink.

Stamp Sets: Eastern Blooms, One of a Kind
Ink: kiwi kiss, pumpkin pie, tempting turquoise
Paper: whisper white, pumpkin pie, kiwi kiss

I took a Splitcoast stampers challenge TLC220 Bandanna Technique {5/11/09}. You can view the link here Splitcoast website

This was great fun to create. You stamp the large flower from One of a Kind set over the piece of Pacific Point card. You then fill in the spaces with the 3 flower stamp. Fill in the spaces with the small flower. Using the white gel pen – highlight aspects of the flowers to create interest.
