Johnny Jump Up Pansies
I won the Easter challenge at Sweet Stamps and picked some great stamps as my prize! This border stamp with the pansies was one of them. The words "Happy Birthday" are separate, but is a Sweet Stamp, too. I wanted my pansies to look like what is in my memory called Johnny Jump Ups. I think I captured their yellow and bluish purple colors well with my Copics. I used a Memory Die and a Cheery Lynn die for the swirls, the gorgeous ribbon is from Reasonable Ribbon, and the Twinkle Goosebumps are from Queen & Co. I put a dash of Stardust Sticklers on their faces and all round the border of this stamp. The card is 5.5x5.5. The pearl cabechon was a sweet addition to the bow. I'm entering this card in the challenge at http://sweetstampsblog.blogspot.com/ for Stamped Frames this week. Thanks for looking at my blog and if you leave a comment, that would be cool. Hugs, Gail

This is truly extraordinary....such a gorgeous creation! Love all the fabulous embellishments and the border stamp with the daisies is stunning!
ReplyDeleteI think you've captured the perfect colors for johnny jump-ups, Gail - which are the miniature version of pansies. Love how this all came together and the diecut flourish seems to add the perfect touch, without distracting from the image itself. And, as always, a perfectly tied bow, which just adds to the charm!!
