Wings And Blooms Project



Welcome Crafting By Designs Blog Hoppers!
Glad you stopped by. I hope you like rose blooms, rose buds, birds and butterflies.  I asked Roni Johnson, one of our talented DT members to create a project especially for this blog hop.  All I gave her to go on was the theme of wings and/or blooms and this is what she sent me. How absolutely beautiful is this? And she used 2 of my favorite color combinations, powder blue and vintage brown. 
Leave a comment on our blog to show Roni some 'love' and be entered in our StampersBest Blog Hop Candy Bonus - a free SB rubber stamp of your choice to one random winner.


The project details...
Roni combined the Rose Bloom Rubber Stamp which already has rose buds and leaves, adding flowers with the Rose Blossom Rubber Stamp which is a single flower.  She then added more leaves with the Foliage Rubber Stamp - thus creating the appearance of seamless corner pieces.  That's a lot of blossoms, blooms, buds and leaves!  I included the graphic below so you could see the individual stamp designs.  Amazing, right?  
For the background, she used the Damask Background Rubber Stamp and some butterflies from our Butterflies Rubber Stamp Collection.  All of this while recycling an old Monopoly game board!    

Rose Blossom - SS04213
Springtime Sparrow - SS04206
Foliage - SS00106
Rose Bloom - SS03009
Butterflies Collection - SC02001
Damask Background - BGL0061
