Schoolhouse Rocks

Do you know what's quick and fun to do between loads?  Die cutting flowers!  Here are a few using some simple 'schoolhouse colors' ... let's start with a closeup - I thought that flower center was a great place to add a little love... you might recognize it from an old favorite Amy Tan embossing folder of mine!


This set of dies was included in a class I took from The Stamp Market
called Fun and Floral-y... not sure if they ever released the dies separately,
but I think ANY flower die would do the trick!


A postage theme seems right on trend!


Thanks so much for your visit today!

  2. I might have to steal that flower center idea now that I have the EF in my hot little hands! These are both perfectly delightful and brought a smile!

  3. Michele these cards are so Beautiful. I love the Stamp Market but don't love the shipping to Canada. Hope you are having a lovely summer, sorry I heard today you are getting smoke from some of wildfires to the west of Canada.

  4. Love the simplicity of these. Nothing beats a simple flower in bold colours. I have a stamp market die set that is very similar, but maybe not exactly the same. It is called big shaker flowers xx
