So the second birthday challenge for AnnaBelle Stamps is simply ‘Blooms’. This is super easy but as I don’t have any of their stamps (yet…) for some reason I just had to use my Stampendous Ranunculus, one of my fave for blooms. Watch out there is lots of embossing! This is why I thought this card was a perfect entry for the current Embossing Lawnscaping Challenge.


Supplies; Paper: Smooth Vanilla Cardstock, Bazzill Cardstock – Kraft. Ink: VersaMark, PTI – Vintage Cream. Stamps: Stampendous – Ranunculus, Hero Arts – Made with Love. Accessories: Fiskars Stamp Press, Heat Tool, AC Zing Embossing Powder – Vanilla, FaberCastell Polychromos Pencils – Light Green, Earth Green Yellowish, Medium Flesh, Kaisercraft Pearls, Foam Dimensionals.
These are beautiful blooms, and perfect for our second challenge! Thanks for playing along 🙂

The embossing pops so nicely on the kraft – and I love the soft colours. A beautiful, gentle ‘thinking of you’ card 🙂 The pearls are exactly the right embellie, and did you swipe the edges with white ink too? Gorgeous!

Great look! Is that colored pencil that you used to fill them in?
Yes it’s Polychromos (very similar to Prismacolor). I wanted a subtle coloured look, and I adore pencil on kraft!
