Playing cards with Shirley again!

I've had another day of play with Shirley Bampton, and her fun Bee's Knees products from Stamplorations ... you'll never guess which set I used for this split-four panel:


Here are the citrus-y colored inks - there's a hint...


Have you guessed yet?  Here it is:


Here are my four cards that I've stamped with just the solid stamps, then cut into four panels, and either embossed, or debossed, for some extra fun!





A few die cut sentiments, and these are ready to wrap as a notecard set!

Shirley has made a batch of her own citrus-y cards!  Let's head over to see them, shall we?  You'll also find her at Stamplorations today!

Thanks so much for dropping in!

Supplies:
Stamplorations Layered Citrus 
Cutplorations cover dies: Circles all Over, and Wonky Stitched Grid
Altenew Mod Squares, and Geo Steps embossing folders

  5. Seriously, Michele, you blow me away time and again. What a fabulous set of note cards and I didn't have an inkling you used a citrus set. But of course you used a citrus set. You have a fantastic eye! Your backgrounds take these to the next level. Thanks so much for sharing. :)

  7. That set worked great for abstract flowers, Michele. And for the split-four technique. This is something I never would have thought of but you also did something similar with another set. I have a STAMPlorations gift certificate waiting to spend (and about to expire) and everything I want is out of stock. Maybe I need to rethink some images.
