I am having so much fun with this stamp set and punch!!
Here is an element I created for a scrapbook page with it
Build a Blossom Acrylic Block Stamp set # 121994
Blossom Petals Punch # 121808
I hope I can use up all the ideas in my head for this stamp set and punch! WOW my brain is going crazy!!
To create the petals using this fabulous stamp set, Cut a 2"x 3" piece of very vanilla cardstock (this is so it fits in the punch and doesn't waste cardstock) just ink up your solid petal in your lightest color- Pink Pirouette and stamp it on the bottom part of your very vanilla cardstock. Then ink up the next largest petal stamp in Regal Rose and stamp over the top- it won't match its not made to match perfectly so don't sweat it! now place your stamped image in the petal of the punch and punch it out!
The size I had you cut will leave enough room for you to stamp your leaf of choice at the top and put in the punch without much cardstock waste!
You will need flower 5 petals and 3 leaves for this specific flower, I then took our White Jumbo Brad 5/8 " # 112533 folded the prongs and then set it with 2 dimensionals to give it some dimension. TA DAH!
I will have a video posted for this over the weekend! Stay Tuned!
I hope this inspires you to create a beautiful element for your projects!!

Over a Creative-Sketches our challenge was to create a card using punches.
I used the NEW and AMAZING Blossom Petals Punch # 121808 in the Occasions Mini catalog page 12 and the coordinating Stamp Set Build a Blossom #121994 (clear mount)
I am so in love with this punch and stamp set!! So fun and easy to use!! NO HAND CUTTING! woo hoo! lol
Stay tuned for my upcoming video on how to create this card!
I hope you have a creative day!
I love using the sketches from Mojo Monday to inspire me with my creations and here is what I created from their sketch. PLUS, I love using the theme from Creative-Sketches this week to combine together and come up with such a fun card!

This darling stamp set reminds me of when I was in grade school and our readers were all Dick and Jane books!! Nostalgia- gotta love it!
This card is so dainty and beautiful in person! I had a special someone I am mailing it to but she shall remain nameless at this time in case she is reading my posts!
