Bloom Where You Are Planted

Hello!! I hope this post finds each of you doing well and having a nice day!  I have a fun card to share with you today that I recently put together using stamps from Market Street Stamps. 



Aren't those carrots so cute!?  I don't have any other images like those in my collection and I really like how sweet they are! I also LOVE Market Street Stamps background stamps!! They fit the entire card front and stamp so well!  I really love their woodgrain background stamp!  I colored the images on this card with copics and added glitter to the carrots with a spica glitter pen.


Of course I couldn't resist adding some Mandarin twine from The Twinery on my card. I was really surprised to find it looks so pretty paired with aqua! I ran the entire stamped and colored kraft panel through my Big Shot with the PTI Linen Impression Plate to give it some earthy texture.


The center panel on the card is popped up with dimensionals and the twine is wrapped around that layer.  The patterned paper is adhered directly to the card base. 

This card is for the Market Street Stamps Block Party.  They are celebrating one year in business!! Angelica and her husband are the owners and she is also a teammate of mine on The Twinery design team!  Congratulations Angelica!!  I wish you many more successful years!
