Happy Hydrangea Day Two

Hey there! Thanks for joining me for day two of the Papertrey Ink May Countdown. I'm back today to bring you more of my new set... Happy Hydrangea and from the looks of it, it sounds as if some of you are as excited about this set as I am. So let me get started with a couple more samples...
First up a card perfect for Mother's Day (which happens to be this Sunday).  I began this card by carefully stamping a few leaves, in Spring Moss ink, onto a Rustic White cardstock panel.
Then die cut, stamped and attached a few hydrangea blossoms with dimensional adhesive.  Stamped the sentiment (from Happy Hydrangea), attached the panel to a card base and then finished the card off with bit of glitter in the flower centers.
Always and Forever, a sentiment perfect for a wedding, an anniversary or for a very special occasion meant to be remembered forever.  Inspiration for this card came from one I had made earlier... here.
I stamped the large hydrangeas in Spring Rain, the small ones in Spring Moss and the leaves in Simply Chartreuse.  Arranged and attached them to a Rustic White card base, at varying heights, using dimensional adhesive.  Finished the card of with a Happy Hydrangea sentiment.

Well, that concluded my second look at Happy Hydrangea. Just remember... this set is available for purchase through Papertrey Ink, beginning May 15th, for $24. In the mean time, I'd love to know what you think so far, so please feel free to share!

Now, be sure to visit Nichole Heady, Dawn McVey & Ashley Cannon Newell for peeks at Heart-2-Heart #4, Framed Out #4 & Fillable Frames Sentiments. Also, Heather Nichols & Melissa Bickford have peeks to share with you of their newest sets for the month.

Thanks so much for stopping by!

    Very pretty! I love hydrangeas. My friend is rooting one of hers for me so I can have one of my very own. Or I could buy the stamp set and have them year round.
