Country Fair - Kitchen Sink Stamps

The arrival of spring and summer have me looking forward to all the wonderful outdoor adventures that they bring! Many of my Master Gardener friends are hard at work in their gardens growing all kinds of delectable edibles and sharing their wonderful product in the local country fair or farmers' market.

Today's Kitchen Sink Stamps sponsored design features images from their sets Artichokes and Baskets. Both were cut with my Cricut using the KSS SVG cut files that go with these sets before they were stamped. The background was created with KSS SVG cut stencils Cloudy Skies and Slimline Herringbone. The 1st Place Ribbon is from the Cricut Design Space collection.

What's Cooking in the Kitchen?

Today is release day at Kitchen Sink Stamps so, of course, today's KSS sponsored designs were created with images from these new sets: Artichokes and Sweetheart Daisies.  I had such fun working with these fabulous images. Each set comes with a wide array of fun sentiments!

This card was created with a SU More Mustard card base which I stenciled with a honeycomb design using Gathered Twigs Distress Oxide Ink by Ranger. I added a band of burlap across the card front before attaching the stamped SVG Sweetheart Daisies Heart. I also cut the bees using the same SVG. Remember you get it for free if you add it to your cart when you purchase the stamp set. 

I used the same color recipe for the bees as I used on the daisies until Layer 4. On the bees layer 4 was stamped with Versafine Claire Nocturne. The tag is a Sizzix die cut and the sentiment stamped with Altenew Espresso.

My next card features this amazing artichoke. Doesn't it look amazingly real? I love it! The set includes two sizes of artichokes with this being the larger one. It is just under 2 inches tall. There is also a good number of wonderful sentiments included with this set.

I used designer paper from Amy Tangerine's Stay Sweet as the background for this windowpane design with the four artichokes.
