Can't leave that large flower down!

I have really fallen for the Large Flower stamp by Hero Arts and I know it will be one of those stamps I will use over and over again - no dust will gather on this one!

Here's a card I made recently using this stamp. Before machine stitching the flower I made a "sandwich" of a piece of fabric, wadding, snippets and threads of organza, a piece of organza. For the leaves, I stamped a leaf from the Scattered Leaves set (Hero Arts) on cotton fabric, layered it on another piece of fabric, zigzag stitched around the edges and cut out.



Here are some more cards I've made using this stamp.

Organza again





Vellum





A couple more!

  5. Funny you should showcase your lovely flowers; I've been working with a PTI flower that is also big, and was wondering how you do your curled edges using vellum? So I went to your Flickr photostream to see if I could figure it out (couldn't). I love everything you've done with this beautiful image! I'm waiting for the new Stencil Flower to arrive, and you've given me lots and lots of inspiration!
