Pretty Cute Stamps March 2016 New Release Blog Hop!

Thanks so much for joining us for the March 2016 New Release Blog Hop, where we are all sharing projects featuring the new stamps this month that are now available in the Pretty Cute Stamps Store.

If you came from Amber's blog - Sew-Ink, you are in the right place. If you just stumbled across this post and would like to start from the beginning, please visit the Pretty Cute Stamps Blog. 

For my project for the hop, I've used the Grow stamp set to create a pretty Springtime card! I did a bit of colouring and paper piecing with the images and used some fun papers from My Mind's Eye Jubilee collection. I love the bright florals - perfect for this set! I used some Glossy Accents to give the water droplets a wet look.

I coloured my stamped images with alcohol based markers and stamped this sweet sentiment on the front of the card.

Inside, I stamped another awesome sentiment included in the set and some seed packets with some sweet flowers inside. I love, love, love that you can mix and match the flowers and veggies inside the seed packets! I'm also really loving this cute 3 heart stamp! A bit of white gel pen highlights my stamping.

I popped up my watering can and flowers after layering, and now my card is ready to mail off to a friend!

Here's a close up of the stamp set I used:
