Baskets of Blossoms - KSS 10 Minute Design 75

Since I had not cleared my work space after creating my card for the Queen for the Day SCS Challenge, the KSS baskets were still opened on my desk. I thought the baskets would look sensational with more of my KSS flowers so I included them as the focus of this week's 10 minute design. This is another one layer creation. I love when I can create with just stamps and ink on paper.

I stamped the basket first and then stamped the grass over it. I then masked the top line of the basket and added the flowers. If you don't have the baskets in your KSS collection yet, you're going to want them! What fun I had filling them with beautiful flowers!

  3. A basket full of flowers is a perfect card to send to shut ins, to comfort the grieving, or even to bring a lift to the ill. These kind of flowers will live on much longer than the real ones. I know you can use these beauties for all your needs in your card ministry.

  7. All are sensational! I love the image and really like that grass on all of these too - maybe because with all the heat and no rain, ours is dying so fast now! At least I get to see it on this lovely set of cards!
