Time for some art work with......Angie!

Hello friends of ODBD!  I hope you are having a wonderful week and that you are ready for a beautiful springy home decor project today, brought to you by our talented and so sweet Angie!  Angie is so good at doing tutorials so I need say no more.... just relax and enjoy her beautiful art project!

Hi, everyone!  I have a very inexpensive gift idea to share with you today.  Wherever I shop, I am always on the look-out for clearance items to turn into projects or gifts at a later time.  I recently found four 4x6 white frames at Target and I knew exactly what I wanted to make with them!

Our Daily Bread designs has such a wide variety of beautiful floral stamps, whether in sets or singles, so I picked out all of the ones which would be a good fit for the 4x6 frames, then narrowed it down to the four which were similar in size.  To frame my flowers, I decided on Fancy Labels and the coordinating Spellbinders Labels Seventeen set, plus a Cheery Lynn Designs Lattice Die for the background.  I chose an amethyst textured cardstock and navy ink for the Fancy Label stamp.

ODBD "Fancy Labels", "Easter Blessings", "Let The Earth Rejoice", "Don't Worry", "Bleeding Heart", "Daisy", "Lilac", "Earth's Gladdest Day"

The photo above tells a pretty simple story.  The Cheery Lynn Designs Lattice panel was cut down to size and adhered to the amethyst cardstock; The Fancy Labels (largest stamp) was stamped on white, then cut out with the Spellbinders Labels 17 die and adhered over the lattice panel.  Once I chose my flowers, I colored them with sponge daubers and markers, fussy cut them out, then popped them up with foam tape over the top panel.  A simple satin bow was added for the finishing touch.....and that's it!!  I thought about adding lots of pearls, but decided I liked the clean look instead.

ODBD "Fancy Labels", "Easter Blessings", "Let The Earth Rejoice", "Don't Worry", "Lilac" Designer Angie Crockett

It was difficult to capture the true colors in the ensemble photo above, so I have photographed them each separately as well.  Move your mouse over each photo below to find which stamps were used.  Click on the photos if you would like a close-up view.

Thanks for hanging out with me today!  Hope you enjoyed the post!!!

Thanks soooo much Angie!  What a beautiful grouping of art for any wall... in our homes or as gifts!  Who wouldn't love to receive this as a gift!!!  

Please leave Angie some love here, and pop on over to her blog to see some of her other beautiful work!  She never fails to inspire us all!

Unlike the Faux Chalkboard techniques, where you stamp white ink onto
black card stock, our stamps were designed to achieve the chalkboard
effect by stamping directly onto your card stock using black or colored ink.
 
See the video below for some helpful tips in using our Chalkboard Stamps.
