Today I am playing with some new items I ordered from Joan's Gardens. First I used a new Cuttlebug embossing folder called "Grace's Frame". I love the deep embossed frame. I posted a lily card the other day made with some new stamps I got from Joan. They are by Heartfelt Creations. Today my card is made with one of the stamps in the "Posy Patch Garden Delight" set. The image was stamped and colored using colored pencils and oms. I cut it out because the sides are a little wider than the frame I wanted to put it in.
Along the left side I used a piece of Basic Grey Design paper from the "Kioshi" paper pad. The flowers along that border are from the Heartfelt Creations "Posy Patch Flowers PreCut set". The leaves are from the "Elegant Single Leaves PreCut set". These sets each have 6 different sizes which gives you many options for creating cards or other projects. Both of these stamp sets have Spellbinder die cuts also so you don't have to cut out the flowers or the leaves with scissors. Really neat for those of you who hate to cut with scissors. It makes cutting them out very quick and easy.
The greeting is from the JustRite "All Occasion Nested Sentiments and Verse" set. The butterfly is from a new Martha Stewart punch I just got. It is the one that has the stamps in the top then you punch it out. To complete the card I added some black rhinestones to the center of the flowers and on each corner of the frame.
Joan is having a big "Garage Sale" to get ready for lots of new items she will be getting from CHA. If you haven't seen it yet, better go check it out. Great Savings!

I love the way you used the new embossing folder and the colors you are using are fabulous.
I just did a card with this watering can too, and I love it. it is easy to cut out and color.
Great job!!!

Your card is just gorgeous! In fact, as I was first looking at your card, I was thinking how cool it would be if the stamps you used coordinated with the new spellbinders posy patch dies... then I realized... THEY DO! LOL! I love your coloring and your whole card is just beautiful. I can't wait until Joan gets more of the posy patch dies in next month... I'm on her waiting list! (right Joan?! ;-) hehe!
Until then I'll just have to look at your card and drool. ;-)
