For my card today, I'm sharing a shabby little mixed-media card featuring the Consider the Wildflowers set and a sentiment from In This Together. I seriously love this sentiment Korin added to the physical stamp set. It should be a plaque on my wall right now! LOL  I started by stenciling a grid background with some buttercup glitter glaze.  I then stamped the flowers and leaves and colored with watercolor markers and then added some details with fineliner pens.  I fussy cut these, then embossed the sentiment onto a piece of vellum cardstock, then tore out and added a sketch little frame to it.  Some black paint splatters and shabby edges finish things off.

Isn't this card by Korin absolutely GORGEOUS! She made her own DIY pattern paper with the Consider the Wildflower set, then added a sentiment from In This Together and that big old beautiful butterfly from Begin Again as her focal point. Simply stunning!

Okay, the next stop on the hop is my blog, Poetic Artistry. 

Here's a little look-see at the sets included in the MAY release...

First up is the May stamp of the month, Encouraging Thoughts. Such a lovely collection of useful sentiments, this set is sure to be a classic. This set is available for purchase for $15.95, OR you can get it as a FREE gift with a $75 purchase (after any discounts and before shipping and tax) during the month of May! Just add it to your cart and the discount will automatically apply once you've qualified.

Next up is that beautiful butterfly set by Korin.  The Begin Again set features a spectacular Morpho Blue butterfly in three sizes, along with wonderfully uplifting sentiments, including a scripture verse from Ecclesiastes.

We've teamed up with our friend Suzanne Corson from ConfettiCreativo once again to bring the gorgeous Consider the Wildflowers set. It's packed with all sorts of whimsical blooms that you'll be reaching for again and again.

Our own Colleen Gaddie brings her second set to us this month with the beautiful My Father's House set. This lovely church imagery will have you singing all day long.

We're so very excited that we were able to turn the digital set we released last month into a physical stamp set so quickly! Korin added a few more encouraging sentiments to the fabulous In This Together clear stamp set.

That's our May Release in a nutshell! So many fabulous sets to choose from! What's your favorite? 

May you be blessed today and always!
