All Things Grow with Love | Traveler’s Notebook | Patricia

Hello Evelin T Designs Friends! Today I want to share three different ways I am using the new Floral Surprise stamp set in my traveler’s notebook. I started this notebook documenting my daughter’s journey of ballet. She has stayed with it since 2 and has been with the same ballet studio since 4. I had these pages prepped ahead of time using white cardstock and watercoloring the background. Then, I used the Floral Surprise stamp with blue ink to stamp partially onto my background.

I added two sentiments on this page, one at the top and one on a die cut. I finished with journaling and embellishments.

For the next page, I did partial stamping onto die cuts that I adhered onto my page. This gives the look that the image is part of the die cut.

I then repeated with more of the sentiments and embellishments to this page as well.

I had to add a little sentiment to this bottom photo. So perfect. I stamped onto the photo with Staz-On ink.

For my third and last way, I heat embossed in a copper color onto the background. For each page, I did pull from the colors of the costumes or in this case the feel of them. So I think the heat embossing gives a beautiful effect here.

And again I used the sentiments from the stamp set on my die cuts and my pages.

I love the texture that this stamp set gives to backgrounds. It is definitely a great focal point stamp for cards, but it is perfect for creating different backgrounds for your memory keeping. And the sentiments, the fonts, just perfect for adding to my story and the details.

Thanks so much for letting me share, and hope this inspires you to get creative with the Floral Surprise stamp set!
