In every walk with nature ... wonderful sentiment stamp from Polkadoodles Spring Song collection.

Still catching up sharing my samples made for the launch of the new Polkadoodles Spring Song Collection on HOCHANDA which is rammed, chocka' full of goodies - 2 x A5 stamp sets, 2 x A5 paper kits & a whooping embellishment kit - and this time, I am sharing a card made with the 'Hello Friends' stamp set and just 3 oxide ink pads ...

The main inspiration for my card was the wonderful sentiment -  which is just one of the 16 stamps found on the 'Hello Friends' A5 stamp set -

"in every walk with NATURE 
you receive far more than YOU SEEK"

I began by colouring my card blank with mermaid lagoon & mustard seed distress oxide and where the 2 colours met, it created a wonderful green. Next using one of the teeny stamps, I created a simple border around my card, doodling between the design. Next I stamped the sentiment, towards one side leaving room for my images.

 

I stamped the wonderful jar full of flowers on to watercolour card using mermaid lagoon oxide, cutting it out and then using 3D foam to add. Next I added some extra foliage to make the bouquet appear bigger, covering my gluing with twine.

I've also added a couple of flowers at the bottom of the jar - stamped with picked raspberry oxide - to act as a frame for the sentiment. Now for the green, I mixed the mermaid lagoon & mustard seed on my glass mat and then took the stamp to the new colour. It worked beautifully and created all the foliage on my card.

Loving the simplicity of this design but also love how you can go completely opposite with colours & layering to create a more vintage feel design - see HERE.

REMEMBER: I still have an open giveaway running for a set of these stamps but hurry, it closes tomorrow night! Check out the giveaway post HERE.
