Release Week Sneak Peak Hello Baby!

Welcome back to day three of Flourishes Release Week Sneak Peaks!! Today is Flourishes "Hello Baby" sneak Peak, and I loved this set from the moment I set eyes on it!

This set is so versatile! You have so many options with this stamp set! There are some sentiments with a cute onesie and baby booties, and my favorite - the clothesline :) I can just hear the little bird nestled in the tree, happily tweeting away :)


I used the "Oh Baby" set that I die cut out placing in on an embossed background over Kraft paper. Iwatercolored it all colored in with Distress Inks using Vintage Photo, Tea DyeForrest Moss, Peeled Paint, Tumbled Glass and Dusty Concord. I sponged around the edges with Scattered Straw and Antique Linen Distress Inks. I added a button and tied it all up with a Solid White Wrinkled ribbon.

  41. I love the stamp done in brown rather than black. It makes a subtle but huge difference in the softer look of this. The watercoloring is a lovely, soft look and the embossing on the patterned paper for the background adds a great texture. Just lovely.
