Varied Vases Sneak Peek

This Varied Vases Bundle is going to be a big hit. It already is for me.  I'm probably a little partial to it though because I've met the creator of this set, Mary Fish and she's just so sweet and talented.  I'm proud to say she's from the great state of Arizona!

Recipe:
Grapefruit Grove - 11" x 4 1/4", scored and folded at 5 1/2"
2018-2020 In Color 6" x 6" DSP cut to 5 1/2" x 2 1/2"
Whisper White - 4 3/4" x 3"
Whisper White - scraps for stamping vases
Whisper White - 5 1/4" x 4" (inside)


 To make stamping and punching a breeze, punch a template into a scrap piece of cardstock.  Lay the vases onto the punched areas with the stamp side down.  Once you have them placed just right, lay a clear block over the stamps and you're ready to stamp and punch. 



Ink up your stamps with whatever color you wish - I used Memento Black and stamp away.  Then all you have to do is punch the trio.  Before punching, if you wish to have some "water" in your vase, here is the best way to do that.

Lay your stamp onto your shade of blue - this is Pool Party - and then carefully line it up with your pre-stamped vases.



Then you are ready to punch.



Thank you for looking in today!  Mark your calendars for June 1st so that you can order this Bundle and start making fun cards!

 Have a blessed Sunday.  We'll be watching the Indy 500 here.  I love all the opening ceremony stuff.

    Cute card. Thanks for reminder about punching them out with laying of the stamps etc. something I forget about!

    I think Mary is from Minnesota and has moved to Arizona quite awhile ago. Either way she is definitely a smart and creative person.

      Thank you Chris! I had forgotten about that trick too. Thankfully I figured it out the right way. I was doing it wrong at first and then remembered it had to be reversed to match the punch.

      Mary's a transplant, but she's ours now! ha ha! I just love her ideas and was lucky enough to be at an event with her in Tucson once.
