A Basketful of Thanks with Picnic with You

Stampin’ Up! #1 Demonstrator Pootles – A Basketful of Thanks with Picnic with You

It’s taken me a while to get out the Picnic with You stamp set, but I so wish I’d used it earlier!

I love it!

I used it on a tiny card a few weeks ago, but today I decided to do a full size card. I haven’t used the matching framelits, but decided to stick to just the stamps in there, and then narrowed it down to just a few elements.

• Firstly I stamped the basket to get the placement
• I covered the basket up with a scrap of paper so that I could stamp my stems in different lengths
• Once I had those in place, I chose 2 of the flower stamps and just scattered blooms everywhere!
• The matching butterfly was deliberately stamped in the same colour so that it looked like she was coming home to roost.
• I dabbed a little Wink of Stella over the butterfly to add a little shimmer to her
• Finally, with my square panels at the bottom sitting over some Linen Thread, I stamped my greeting and 2 more flowers

How cute. I love how this card has turned out, and if you’re like me and haven’t yet discovered the Picnic with You set, go and check it out!
