My first card features ink blending with the new Captivating Blooms Stamp & Stencil Bundle. When my crafty MOJO is low, I simply use the beautiful packaging from Altenew to inspire me :))

Next up, is the SENTIMENT filled Monsteras and Quotes Stamp & Die & Stencil Bundle. The tiny planter pot from a MINI DELIGHT stamp set became the base for several of the Monsteras leaves. The background matting is randomly stamped with ink spritzed with water from Fine Mister Bottle.

A second card featuring the Monsteras and Quotes with a simple background using the Monstera Frame 3D Embossing Folder and very water saturated mix of INK SPRAYS.
TIP: Try using die cuts from WHITE cardstock to bring in the balance of WHITESPACE which make colored dies pop and draw attention to the sentiment.

A bit of scribbling on the Mosaic Diamonds Stamp Set with a GOLD GEL PEN added some spice for left over floral blooms and frames.
TIP: choose a coordinating ink color for background stamps to bring together a SCRAPPY freestyle cluster of elements.
