So here is a card I made for the Scrapbook Boutique Blog. I have been playing with Hero Arts – Delicate Leaf Clusters and am in love!! This is such a versatile set of stamps, they can be used to create a background, as the focal point on the card or even just to decorate a flower, and of course, they stamp beautifully! Evelyn has heaps of new Hero Arts stock in at the moment, it makes it hard to choose, you should go have a look for yourself at Scrapbook Boutique. I have linked the supplies that I have used below and you can visit Scrapbook Boutique Blog for a tutorial on how to make this card.

Your watercolor image is striking Therese. I love it with the clean crisp kraft. The stamped leaves on the corners is lovely. And your sentiment stamped in white is perfect. I love white on kraft.
love how your watercolor came out… So pretty with the kraft. It is just beautiful…
This is SO pretty Therese. I’ve been wanting to try this technique, but never seem to get around to it. I will now!
This is just gorgeous. The kraft on kraft is really elegant – especially paired with the subtle watermark stamping and matching ribbon. It’s just a great example of harmonious design! Love it.
Just lovely. I must give watercolour paper another go – I haven’t used it in ages. Loving that ribbon as well – the texture of it compliments the earthy feel and colours of your card. Nice layout as well!
GREAT window card Therese!! Love how you colored the leaves and embossed the sentiment. The ribbon is just the right finishing touch!
Holy cow! The window is so cool!! I love your addiction to kraft–no one uses it better 🙂 Your inking is stunning. BTW, have you seen the embossing folder for this stamp?
This card is gorgeous! I love the watercolour effect and the window. 🙂
I have this set and have never inked up any of the stamps! I think it’s time I did though… Thanks, as always, for such gorgeous inspiration!
Lovely card Therese! The texture of the ribbon is perfect with the kraft cardstock. I’m loving the softness of the watercolor technique.
Oh, I love the multi-coloured inking, and that spectacular burlap-y ribbon! I am really loving your tone-on-tone popped up layers, too. So subtle but packs a huge visual punch 🙂
The Kraft frame is just perfect and love the pretty natural ribbon too:)
Your work is always so neat 🙂
