I featured the Citrus Blooms stamp set on my FB live this week, but, more specifically, I featured the fabulous Mediterranean Blooms 12×12″ DSP!
I love the blues and yellows of this DSP. Of course, the oranges are great too, and I’m pretty sure that the citrus are actually supposed to be oranges and not lemons, but that doesn’t work with the DSP! So, I took creative license and colored my oranges to look like lemons!
All of the cards were so simple to make — I think the hardest time I had was coloring with the Stampin’ Blends. I don’t know about you, but I LOVE to color, so … this was the best class!
Here’s the first card, simple but beautiful I think! I wish I had used the triple oranges/lemons image rather than the single lemon to take up more room, but hindsight is 20-20!
The 2nd card is also very simple. The hardest part was probably cutting out the flowers! I stamped in Daffodil Delight, then colored with Lemon Lolly. Oh yes, I also colored the Striped Iridescent Ribbon with my Dark Daffodil Delight Stampin’ Blend.
My 3rd card is a fun-fold card — score on the 2-1/8″ and 6-3/8″ line on the long side.4
Here’s a closer view of the front of this card:
Finally, the 4th card was inspired by my friend Judy — the oranges were cut from the DSP. Easy peasy!
You can check out my Facebook Live video that I loaded to YouTube for the measurements etc.
