I was beyond thrilled to see the September stamp of the month. I LOVE the look of silhouette flowers, always have.
The first one I did with watercolours and watercolour paper. Make sure you let the paint dry before you stamp! I let mine dry overnight. I found that the paint/water combo sometimes warps the paper, but if you lay a book or something heavy on top of it, the paper flattens out again. But don't lay something on top while it is still wet! :)
I love the look of this card. So simple...the colours look like sunset, which is what I was aiming for. I almost think I don't want to give this card away! :)
The second card I made was SUPER quick... like 5 minutes quick. I used some patterned paper from the Seaside paper pack, Colonial White cardstock, and Glacier, Black and Whisper inks.

Both cards used the Paper Garden SOTM stamp set and the Say It All stamp set, which is a Hostess Rewards set.
Looking forward to posting some projects with some new CHRISTMAS stamps from the Holiday Expressions catalogue next! :)
