Basket of Blessing

Hi to all the lovely Bloggers out there!

Hope you are all very well and happy! Well today I need to share  some of the lovely sunshine we have been having in Cockburnspath! I just love the Sun! All the lovely Bees and the birds the sounds of the garden is so calming and so beautiful! I just love Mother Nature! When I was taking my photos there came a bee and sat on 1 of my flowers in my image, unfortunately I was just that second to slow to capture it in a picture. So it decided to come and sit on my camera while I was taken pictures.

Well it is Tuesday and another lovely challenge from SweetStamps.com!

***********

Here is my Recipe!

I am so into folded cards these days and is having fun!

Well I made a Stepper card with White Linen Card Stock

I layered it with a heavy Yellow Gingham Card Stock

Added RicRac on top of the ribbon to the bottom of the front stepper

and the top of the back step. 

I positioned and glued my flowers to give dimension and depth to the

basket

Did the same on the step of the stepper card too.

Added a double bow to the basket

Stepper from the side

I stamped this lovely combo of stamps from SweetStamps.com several times

I just love Jackie's Baskets and Bow 3000,

Daisy Swag and Daisy Bunch

Colored it in with my Promarkers and cut it all out and shaped them with a Embossing tool

Promarkers:

Canary, Soft Lime, Gold, Bright Orange

Apple Cider, Olive Green, March Green

Cocoa, Vanilla and Caramel

These lovely Butterflies are from Cheery Lynn Designs 

DL113 Exotic Butterflies

I added a bit of bling to the bodice and the antennas

I created a banner that has been held by the 2 butterflies

This lovely sentiment goes so well with this basket and flowers

Basket of Blessing 9132C

I added a bow in the middle of these 2 Garlands to give the illusion that the 2 garlands

is held together with the bow in the middle
