Tiptoe Through the Tulips...


It's been cold, cold, cold here in Kansas and I'm dreaming of Spring so I decided to bring Spring alive in this month's post. Tulips are the perfect Spring flower (along with iris!). They're cheery and easy and vibrant and they just make me happy!

I simply adore the Milk Can Flowers digi set. I have a hard time lining up two part rubber stamp sets, even with the stamp platforms. With digis, I can line them up and fuss with them until I have it just right and then print. It's so easy and so fun!

The image is colored with copics and popped up on an embossed background. This makes a perfect note card, get well card, birthday card or sympathy card. By having a focal image and no sentiment, the possibilities are endless.

And, here's another tulip card featuring the Tulip digi. It's also colored in copics and is layered on a splashed background stitched cardstock layer and then on a polka dot background. It's another card design without a sentiment so the image can pop.

I normally outline an image in light blueish green to make it pop a little. This one I experimented with a light lavender around the flower and a light green around the leaves. The fun of coloring is that there are always options.

I encourage you to visit Pickled PotPourri Designs to find these and many other lovely digital stamps to use in your own crafty endeavors.

  1. Your cards are always gorgeous. The tulips are a bit of teasing in January, LOL! But they sure are gorgeous.
