CF: Stamp, Color, & Send (#2-Flowers)

There is just something relaxing about stamping images, coloring them and then making them into nice cards to share with friends - to brighten their day. [It reminds me of all the adult coloring books on the market these days.]

Since spring will be here in a month (yay!), I thought what better way to get us ready than to have another coloring swap with a theme of FLOWERS.

The cards you make (2 this time) are not for your partners to use, but rather for each of them to read and enjoy because you will have written a nice note to each of them inside and on the actual card (not on a separate piece of paper).

So, here is what we will do:

• Choose 1 (or more) flower themed rubber stamps from your collection (at least 1 stamp should be a design that you can color in).
• Stamp and color, and adhere to a background layer (or layers).
• Attach it to a folded card.
• Repeat above steps for the 2nd card.
• It's optional if you want to stamp a greeting inside the cards.
• Write a note on the inside of each of the 2 cards.
• Put each card inside an envelope.
• Stamp a few flower images on the envelopes (it's optional if you want to color these).
• Put on proper postage.
• Send out to each partner.

P.S. This swap icon is a card I made. I got the watering can stamp for $1.00 on consignment at a local rubberstamp store. You know how I love a good bargain! LOL :)
