Rise And Shine

Welcome by the Joy Clair Blog today, everyone! It's Karen Letchworth posting and sharing a card/bookmark I created for Joy Clair Stamps to showcase a few more of the 12 AMAZING new stamp sets recently released. We've all been having SO much fun creating cards, bookmarks, and all kinds of fabulous projects with our Joy Clair Stamps, and we know that you will love them too! This card features the sweet new Blossom Stamp Set. I used ivory and forest green cardstocks and a Stitched Rectangle Die for the base. Next, I stamped all the cactus using the amazing Bloom Stamp Set and colored each one with my Copics. The sentiment I chose for this card (Rise & Shine) is from the new Rise And Shine Stamp Set. All of Joy Clair's amazing stamp sets work well when used together or independently. To prove this point yet again, I made a sweet little bookmark to match my card.

For the bookmark, I used the sunshine stamp that you can find in the new God's Promises Stamp Set and the sentiment (Hello) from the Easter Greetings Stamp Set. And then, to tie everything together...I again used a cacti from the Blossom Stamp Set. Aren't those cactus bushes the cutest? You'll see in the photos below that I added a small glassine bag to the inside (left) of my card so that I could tuck this cute little bookmark safely inside the card.
