Time spent with friends is time well spent


I should be packing for vacation. I got the quilt done so I thought I would spend a little while playing with my new Time well spent stamp set before I go back to work. Stamping is more fun anyway! ;) I started with a chocolate chip square base and scalloped the bottom edge with my create-a-cut. I did a layer of pumpkin pie with a piece of polka dot au chocolat designer paper over that. The circles were cut on my coluzzle. I sewed on the au chocolat dp and also on the cool caribbean circle. The caribbean circle was stamped with the small flower from time well spent in caribbean. I used my white gel pen to add dots and then for the centers of the flowers, I used copper stickles. I stamped my flowers in basic gray and water colored using really rust, cool caribbean, and chocolate chip ink. I used copper stickles on the flowers to give them some bling. The center of the big flower is a clear rhinestone brad. The rectangle piece was cut with my nestabilites rectangle die and embossed. I sponged the edge with chocolate chip and water colored friends and the flowers. I added a piece of soft sky stitched ribbon to the corner. I hope you like it! I think I am going to love this set! Have a great night!
