Botanical Bunch

Hello friends.  Quite awhile back I ordered the Botanical Bunch stamp set from WPlus9, and then it sat there.  And sat there!  Ever get a stamp set and then wonder "why did I order this"?  Finally sat it in the middle of my desk and told myself I had to make something with it, and I'm glad I did, as I really like what I came up with!  I think I tend to "over think" some sets too much, when just keeping it very simple can make a really lovely card.  Take a look:


I basically just used black, gray, and white with a pop of color in my sentiment banner.  Hard to see in my photo, but the center flower bouquet is embossed in black, so IRL it has a pretty shine to it. I thought about coloring in the flowers, but again, sometimes just keeping things very simple can make it more striking! 

Thanks so much for stopping by today...I love it when you do! :0)

    This is beautiful, Marcia! It looks fabulous done in black, white and grey. I wondered the same thing when I purchased this stamp. We should challenge each other to use this stamp again..
    Here's a link to the one and only card I've made using this stamp:
