Though the set I recently purchased isn't a new one in their collection, I have been wanting Botanical Blocks for a very long time... guess what? It is MINE all mine! Along with a nice package of their Linen vellum - finally found it in stock!! New stamp, new vellum, first time inked... play on!
For this premier use I chose to stamp the sunflower image with Versamark onto the linen vellum, then white heat-emboss it. I then colored it from the back side. Love this technique - even prettier with the texture of the linen coming through - it was further enhanced by mounting it to a piece of PTI kraft cardstock.
Happy anniversary, PTI - I adore your company, your design team, the fabulous blog - well, everything about you!
There's another take on the same technique that I'm sending over to Time Out ... see you there!

Pretty card! I love how it looks on the vellum.
Very pretty. The vellum is so classy and have you seen all the new vellum they have out for this release?
The white embossing on the vellum is so lovely, Michele ... and the image is so beautifully coloured ... it's just beautiful! Anita :)
Beautiful card
This one is gorgeous too! When I first got that set I couldn’t stop using it! Love all the dry embossing.
Totally beautiful Michele! I love white embossing, love vellum, love sunflowers...awesome EF too :)
What an incredible card - definitely love that coloring on the back of the vellum trchnique!! So cool to see how lovely this card turned out!! Simply gorgeous!!
This is lovely! Great job.
Love your card - everything about it
This is so pretty! Your coloring is fabulous. I didn't even know they had a linen vellum. I'll have to try to find it on their site.
This is gorgeous!
Another gorgeous creation.
Love this one stamped on the vellum and your coloring is wonderful! Beautiful card!!
this is AMAZING.
So beautiful! LOVE the coloring on the backside of the vellum! Such a great technique!
I thought about those botanicals when they first came out and decided no. Now I'm thinking they would be great, especially since I love to watercolor. Yours are beautifully colored, Michele.
Another wow! I am so loving this one too!! I swear I am going to have to go shopping, I haven't bought anything from PTI in a long time-to long. lol Hugs, Brenda
Another stunner. OK, not complaining about all the inspiration--pin!
Stunning in every way, Michele! You've certainly allowed that *all yours* beautiful botanical to take the spotlight! Absolutely gorgeous! In awe...
