Stamps and Smiles Release - Day 3

Hello SAS Friends!! Thanks for stopping by!  If this is the first time you are stopping by, we are on day 3 of our stamp release. We have 10 BRAND NEW STAMP SETS, with 2 NEW sets being revealed each day this week!

So are you ready for Day 3 previews?  I absolutely love all of the new sets but these two sets today are near and dear as I am a total flower girl....even though I can't grow or keep flowers alive to save my life...but I love how beautiful they are!  Today we are sharing Martha Flower Set and Rose Flower Set!

First I will share my sample of Martha with you:
This card was made with the help of a VERY SPECIAL Girl!  During CHA, I got to stay with Jennifer (the owner of Stamps and Smiles) and her family (thanks again hun!!!)....and while I was there we of course had crafty time.....Jennifer's daughter Hannah helped me create this card!  I had her pick the colors she wanted me to use...she wanted PINK, ORANGE, and YELLOW!  So that's the story behind this card and how I ended up with a very colorful Martha...and I have to say I LOVE the color combo!!!!  Thanks so much Hannah for the wonderful help hun...you are the BEST!!!  Papers are from the Cosmo Cricket DeLovely collection.  Corners were accented with my Viva Decor Ice White Pearl Pen.
Martha was colored with Copics and accented with a white gel pen!  She was cut out with a SB circle and layered on a SB scalloped circle.  Diamond Stickles was added to the main flower on Martha.
These flowers were made using the scalloped circle punch and then accented with more Diamond Stickles!  On the orange flower I used only cardstock, and on the pink flower I used a mix of cardstock and dp.
Here you can see the 3D of the orange flower and Martha's hair that has been popped up.  Diamond Glaze was added to Martha's eyes for some shine.
Here is Miss. Hannah....isn't she the cutest!!!  I surprised Hannah and when we were done and told her she could keep Martha. :)  She was all excited and I was so happy she liked it!

Now onto the Rose Flower Set:
For this set I decided to make a sweet gift set.  Don't you just love the sweet basket?  (Thanks to my dear friend Suzanne for her inspiration!!  I adore this girl!!!)  Papers are from MME Home Collection.
Here you can see the card closer.  The pendant that Rose was popped up on is a felt pendant that I got on one of my trips to Michaels.  I saw it sitting in my supply bin and thought that it would make an awesome background for this beautiful flower girl!
Miss. Rose was colored with Copics and accented with a white gel pen.  Then I took Glamour Dust and and edged the petals for lots of sparkle!
Flowers are Primas consisting of Pink Mini Roses and Hydrangeas.
From this angle you can see the sparkle of the Glamour Dust and the Diamond Glaze that's one Rose's eyes.
Then we have this cute basket.  This was made using the same flower stamp sets!  I love all the sentiments that you get with these sets....you can use the flower girls for any type of card!

Yep, the basket opens for you to put goodies or a gift card in for someone!  I hope you have enjoyed my samples with today's fun new flower sets!
