The gathered blooms series

October is past and the weather is getting really chilly now. You can sense winter in the air. The leaves are falling quickly and there has been frost on the windows. Thanksgiving is right around the corner and I have so much to be thankful for. I am especially grateful for the wonderful stamps that Memory Box is making.

Gathered blooms was on the top of my list to get. I knew I was saving it for Thanksgiving cards. This month I will be focusing on this stamp and showing you a variety ways of using it.

Today, I am channeling my best Dave Brethauer and keeping the cards simple and colored. I stamped the blooms in Memento expresso truffle and watercolored the first card, the second stamped on kraft paper I colored with copic markers.

To showcase the sentiment I stamped and embossed with gold. I embellished the card with some twine and this CAS card was complete. 

I hope if Dave sees these cards he is smiling and thinking I taught this girl well!

Stay tune for the second card in my "gathered blooms" series.

These are both so pretty! Love the twine tied around them. It makes it look like the flowers are tied together and ready to be handed to someone special!! I simply LOVE both of these! TFS!
