Trust God

— Download the 2015 Stampin’ Up! Retiring List PDF HERE —


I wanted to play with my newest stamp set, Trust God.  It was on my wish list for so long and I finally got it.  I'm happy to say it isn't on the retirement list so, Yay!

With any luck at all, Painted Petals will stick around and move into the annual catalog.  I sure hope so, I love these flowers so very much!

Recipe:

Base - Calypso Coral - 8 1/2" x 5 1/2", scored at 4 1/4"
Crisp Cantaloupe - 5 1/4" x 4"
Whisper White - 5 1/8" x 3 7/8"

Smaller square for flowers:
Calypso Coral - 3 3/4" x 3 3/4"
Crisp Cantaloupe - 3 3/8" x 3 3/8"
Whisper White - 3 1/4" x 3 1/4"

Ink:  Calypso Coral, Crisp Cantaloupe, Pear Pizzazz

Ribbon:  Pear Pizzazz




Do you have trouble lining up your flowers when they come in layers?  Try this:

First stamp your stems where you want them to be:


Then place the flowers - stamping side down onto your paper exactly where it needs to be.


Take your clear block and keeping it square with your card stock lay it gently over your photopolymer stamp.  Press gently and lift up.


Then ink your stamp and you're ready to place it back easily by lining it up.  Perfect every time!


Thank you for looking in today.  I hope you had a great Wednesday.
