I love the What's Cookin'? bundle and it is one of the sets on sale for March at 20% discount along with the Mini Stampin' Cut and Emboss Machine.
I have made lots of kitchen scenes with this great set and this one is inspired by the Blue and White China in my kitchen. ( none of it is authentic Burleigh China but that's ok!)
I wanted to have a blue and white patterned china bowl and was surprised how well the bowl stamped onto some Boho Indigo floral paper. ( This is retired but the principal would work on any small print DSP). I stamped it in Misty Moonlight and heat embossed the bowl with clear powder to add a bit of shine to the bowl. I tried this on a few of the different papers but the blue on blue stamping worked the best. I also used a retired set - Seasoned with Kindness for the potted herbs on the bench, and the little jug is from Welcoming Window. ( this is another bundle which is on sale and is compatible with the Mini Machine )
This is an easel card so it stands up for display but folds flat to fit in an envelope. You can see more Easel card samples if you follow the Fancy Folds tab at the top of the page.
This is not a card for any particular occasion -that's one of the lovely things about handmade cards- you can send someone a little paper hug any time. In my experience it is the unexpected evidence in the letter box that someone was thinking of you that is the most uplifting. When was the last time you posted a cheery hello?

I hope you have a creative week and remember,
"don't just post online,
post something pretty!"
