Sending Love


Hello again everyone!  I'm happy to be cozy and warm in my squishy chair as I write this post because it has been COLD even in Florida! It got down to 33 overnight a few nights ago!  Brrrrr!  I am happily snuggling with my spinning and knitting and a hot cup of coffee, tea or cocoa!  This is definitely the weather for sitting with a warm knitting project in your lap!  


Today's Stamp Simply project features our beautiful Vintage Peony stamp set.   Although this set has coordinating dies, I didn't use them for this project, deciding instead to stamp a simple background with the peonies on plain white card stock.  I colored them with Copic markers and filled in the empty space with faint stenciling and spattering with copper ink for some shimmery sparkle.  


Here is a closer look at the banner sentiment and the coppery stenciling behind it.  


The colors of the peachy-pink peonies are reflected in the choice of designer paper for the card's inside.  And because the Tim Holtz die set I used last week was still within reach I was inspired to stamp a little reminder card/envelope to enclose as well.  


Here is the inside of the card by itself...


...and a close-up of the little envelope and its accompanying note, which measures approximately 3 x 2 inches.  The little bee is from the same Peony stamp set, and the serrated stamp die is included in the Postale die set with the envelope, hand and more.  The sentiment is from a set in our Typewritten series.
