Botanical Builder Framelits

Botanical Builder, Watercolor Wishes, Stampin Up, susanstamps.wordpress.com

This is a fun card that requires very little stamping.  The only thing I actually stamped was the “Thanks” from the Watercolor Wishes Card Kit.  That is one of the nice things about kits.  You put all the cards together (there are 20 in this kit) but you still have the stamps to use forever.  This particular sets of stamps has a great font that looks like handwriting.  I use it quite a bit.

The flowers and the leaves are from the set of Framelits called Botanical Builder.  It does have a matching set of stamps called Botanical Blooms but I didn’t actually use them on this card.

Botanical Builder Thank You

Botanical Builders, Watercolor Wishes

This is the second card I made for my sister’s awesome birthday present.  If you missed this story I talked about it in yesterday’s post.  To recap, my sisters and I went to South Carolina to visit my mother.  We went shopping and they bought me a gorgeous early birthday present.

I used the Botanical Builders Framelits to make this card.  I love this set of Framelits mostly because of the leaf cut out.  I think it is very pretty.  The sentiment is from the card kit called Watercolor Wishes.  That is the great thing about kits.  After you have made all the cards in the kit, you still get to use the stamps and ink spots that come with it.  It is a great value especially for a new stamper.

A Tic Tac Toe Stamp Off

Stamp Off New Logo

First of all I need to say Happy Birthday to my Mom today!  She is 91 and has more energy than I do!

Now, back to business.  It is that time again for another Stamp Off!  This time we are following a Tic, Tac, Toe board.  You can make a card using the items in any row or diagonal.  Here is the board:

I decided to make a card using the middle row (Framelit or Thinlit, White Perfect Accents and Flower).  I just happen to have a package of White Accents that I forgot about.  It was a great reminder to get them out and use them (instead of hoarder as usual).  Here is my card:

Ok, so I have to admit I did cheat a bit and added an Embossing Folder to my card.  Honestly, I am not sure if that is considered actually cheating since it didn’t say whether or not I could use other items too.  That is one of the great things about BS & J Productions.  There are no hard rules to follow. The other members (Buffy & Jackie) don’t care if you cheat a little or change things up.

Now let’s all go check out their web sites to see what they made using this board.  You can go to Buffy’s blog by clicking HERE and Jackie’s blog by clicking HERE.

When I made this card using the Botanical Builder Framelits Dies, it made me think of Hawaii.  I don’t know why, but it just does.  Maybe it is the colors.  Maybe it is the flowers themselves.  In any case, Hawaii is someplace I would love to go visit.  It is supposed to be a tropical paradise and is definitely on my bucket list.  I have read that it is always sunny and warm there and right now I could use some sunny, warm weather.  It has been miserable here.  Yesterday we had freezing, pouring rain and today is very dreary.  Who wants to move to Hawaii with me??
