I've created two cards for today's post:) I used the NEW Garden Greetings stamp set. 

I just love each of the vase sentiments in this set- they can be used together or separate! Each letter is a different vase--- so fun!! I masked the "HI" vase sentiment, using just the letter "I", and made this bunch of flowers as my main image. I tried mirror stamping to create layers of flowers. I added a felt ribbon banner with a sentiment stamped from the NEW Kindness Sampler set. The papers are from the Crate Paper Gather line. This card could be customized by switching out any of the vases, flowers, and sentiments! LOVE it! 

Next I used only the NEW Garden Greetings stamp set to create a mini card. This set has many vases but also other images as well! This sentiment uses the letters as the flower stems- super cute! I pulled out my Zig markers (for the first time) and watercolored the background and images. SOOOOOOO stinkin' adorable! 

Be sure to stop by the PS blog for details about this blog hop and giveaway! And don't forget to leave some love on the DT's blogs:) 

That's it for me today- THANK YOU so much for stopping by! Be blessed!
