Melanie's Blog Hop Featuring "Say It With Flowers"







Melanie Muenchinger is celebrating two years of blogging and illustrating for Gina K Designs, and today she has invited 25 designers and YOU to join the party! First hop through the following designers' blogs using every set she has created since January 2008, from the first to the 25th! Then go to Melanie's' blog to leave a comment for a chance to win a number of different prizes!

Melanie asked me to post cards from two different sets today so I have two cards for this blog hop.  This is the first card  featuring her set called  "Say it With Flowers".   The flowers are from Melanie's  "A Year of Flowers" and the verse is from "Say It With Flowers".  There are so many beautiful verses in this set that can be used with many of Melanie's stamp sets.

The flowers on this card were black embossed on Lovely Lilac cs and cut out.  The leaves were stamped on Certainly Celery cs.  The dp is from SU.  Two Nestabilities Label 4 frames were cut to mount the flowers and leaves on.  A Martha Stewart punch was used for the border.  A green bow and pearls were added to complete the card. 

Now for the rest of the Hop!
