Simon Says Stamp Beautiful Moments Blog Hop - Day 1

I'm so happy to be participating in day 1 of the Simon Says Stamp Beautiful Moments blog hop. I hope you get some inspiration and enjoy the giveaway and a special offer for this blog hop. This gift with purchase will expire March 1st at 11:59 pm will supplies last.👇👇👇
This release is filled with wonderful Spring items! I wanted to create a basket of just brimming with spring flowers. It's been such a cold and ugly winter so I just had to create some spring blooms.
Card Base: Top folding A2 size card cut from smooth white cardstock.
Background: I used a plaid stencil from my stash to create a simple background on gray cardstock that I cut out using a stitched rectangle die.
Focal Point: I used the Simon Says Stamp Country Basket Bouquet die images to create this fun spring basket filled with flowers. I cut the basket from white cardstock and used some ink to add a distress ink. I cut many flowers and used more distress ink to add color to each flower. I arranged and adhered the flowers with liquid glue and some with foam squares.
Sentiment: I stamped the sentiment from the Basket of Blooms stamp set and used the coordinating die to cut it out. I stamped it in a coordinating. I added sequins around the sentiment for a little sparkle.
Simon is giving away a $25 shopping spree to a lucky winner! The winner will be picked from the comments left along the hop and announced Wednesday, March 4th on the Simon blog.
