Nothing better than a HUG! A friend requested a set of hugs so I was happy to oblige. She wanted clean and simple.
I used Enchanted Evening ink at full strength and stamped off for this one. Don't you love the stitched speech bubble dies from MFT?
Watercolor Wonder in Spring Rain ink created a landing spot for the sentiment.
I used the Simple Stripes Impression plate on my circle to add some texture. I had forgotten that I had it. I going to leave that one out of my desk for a bit.
I love this stamp set and die! Have a wonderful week. ~Rhonda

I went a little crazy with Brushed Blooms. Once I started I wanted to play with lots of different color combos. First up is the birthday card. I used blues and coral.
I also used this set for my Mother's Day card. Pinks and yellow created a very bright, happy card. I hope my Mom loves it.
The last one is a hi! card. I love the chevron stamp from Noted. The perfect image to ground my flowers.
I hope you are celebrating someone this week. ~Rhonda

I loving having stamp sets that let me celebrate life as it happens. My oldest son started a new job and is moving to Houston, TX. As soon as I get the new address, this one is going in the mail. I used Fresh Alphabet to spell his name on the marque.
My color inspiration came from the March 2015 release color recipes. Melon Berry, Aqua Mist, and Enchanted Evening. If you are interested in how I created a stamping template using the MISTI for this set you can reference this post. ~Rhonda
