Enjoy the Gifts of Nature

Hi Everyone!

Things have been so hectic here, Ryan my 13 year old just finished his last full day of school here and now for the next week, I just about drop him off when I have to go up to the school to wait to bring him home! We then go to Florida to set the rest of our other home up:-) I feel a bit like a Gypsy but its fine with me;-)
Today its my turn to showcase a card using one of the Scrapbooking Queens stamp sets:-) I used The Royal Garden today with a cute Teddy Bo Image!


I added a few flowers from Wild orchid crafts and a circle die cut from MFT and there is a hint of Washi Tape from Freckled Fawn that should be black with white dots but I loved putting it on the red cardstock :-)
Thanks for stopping by

We are bringing you new and exciting stamp sets from The Scrapbooking Queen. She was suppose to be on vacation but I think she hid in the dungeon and worked her fingers to the bone!

This stamp set can be purchased in The Queen's Royal Shoppe.

I used CC Designs Sugarplums stamps from the set "Take A Seat" to go with the sentiment
I'm not sure if this cutie comes by herself, since I know I had bought the set for the wagon and girl:-)
Below you can kind of see that I stamped the flower a second time and popped it onto the original for a 3-D effect
