Flower Baskets Make Your Heart Sing

Flower Baskets are so pretty in your gardens or on your balconies and they can also make you feel uplifted.

The Sprinkles of Life stamp set is this year’s Ronald MacDonald stamp set. We can make hearts sing when we purchase this stamp set as $3.00 from every set sold will go to support the children and their families when they are far from home. To date, Stampin’ U[! has donated over $1,000,000 to Ronald MacDonald House Charities and their local chapters.

So yes, Flower Baskets can make your heart sing.

There are so many ideas that can be generated with this set. How about ice cream cones, an apple tree, or a cheery tree depending on what you see, birds flowers, clouds…it’s endless. There is a matching punch available so that you don’t have to fussy cut some of the pieces. But then again maybe you like to fussy cut. There are also 8 sentiments that come with this stamp.

Recipe

Stamps: Sprinkles of Life, Hardwood.

Ink/Markers: Tuxedo Black, Delightful Dijon, Tip Top Taupe, Watermelon Wonder, Cucumber Crush, Pool Party.

Paper: Tip Top Taupe, Whisper White, Delightful Dijon, Pool Party, Cherry on Top DSP Stack.

Accessories: Tree Builder Punch, 1-1/4” Burlap Ribbon.

The Hardwood stamp was loaded up with Tip Top Taupe ink and stamped on Pool Party card stock. This gives a great textural background for the images.

The baskets were done with Delightful Dijon ink and Delightful Dijon card stock and, yes, I did fussy cut them.

The flowers were stamped in Tuxedo Black and punch out with the Tree Builder Punch.

Finally the Burlap ribbon was frayed and I took 2 strands, tied them in a loose knot and attached to the baskets with Glue Dots.

I hope that you enjoyed this Flower Baskets card and support the RMHC through out the year and purchase the Sprinkles of Life stamp set.

Because most of the products on this card are in the 2015/16 Annual catalogue, I am unable to link to my online store until June 2, 2015. So, get ready, get set and hold down the excitement…
