Yesterday's Purple Onion Designs leaves and blooms were stamped in Charcoal on DP. Today's examples are those same stamps in different color palettes, which produces a completely different effect.
For the first card I stamped all of the images from the Blooms and Leaf sets and the sentiment from the Script Hello set in Dark Brown Chalk ink on K&Company Que Sera Sera DP. Then I used my 1" square punch upside down to position the images inside the square window.
I finished by mounting the squares on brown paper from the same Que Sera Sera collection and mounting it on two more layers of the same DP. Completely flat for mailing, yet lots of visual interest.
The next card uses the same Blossom stamps with a variety of Chalk inks on another piece of designer paper.
I finished with the bloom sentiment from POD and a little bow for my wildflower bouquet.
