flower block basket

Hello Sweet 'n Sassy friends! 

 

Today I am sharing something other than a card.  I like to make 3-D projects also and this time I made a little basket of treats to cheer up a friend going through treatments for cancer.  Leaving a basket of goodies hopefully let her know that I am thinking of her even after my visit.

I used the Sweet 'n Sassy Mini Flower Blocks 1 stamp set to make my flower on the front.

a close up...

My friend said it was her "little ray of sunshine".  :)  I am good about making cards but not always so good at sending them.  lol.  But I would encourage you to lift someone up with a card or small gift such as this... it sure lifted my spirits too!  ‘Truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me.’ Matthew 25:40

Have a wonderful day!

Mini Flower Blocks 1

Hello! It's Monika here today with a Spring card. 

We still have snow on the ground so I am ready for some pretty flowers and Spring colors.I decided to use one of the mini blocks from Mini Flower Blocks 1 clear stamp set. 

I stamped up 3 Daffodil images. After coloring the images with Prismacolor Watercolor Pencils, I cut one whole flower out, and the upper part of the second flower. Then I popped the pieces on the third, main image with dimensional tape.

The background was stamped with images from Vintage Postcard clear stamp set (out of stock). I also spritzed black ink over the background with my Spritzer Tool. The greeting is from Keep in Touch Too clear stamp set. 

I also added a sweet little butterfly, stamped and heat embossed on vellum. The image is from Majestic Monarchs clear stamp set. It was die-cut with the coordinating Monarchs Dies. 

Thank you for stopping by today,

Monika
