It's in the Bag!


There have been a lot of stamping posts about being "inspired" in strange places. This gift bag, given to me by a friend (thanks, Cyndi!), immediately brought to mind the Stampin' Up!® Jumbo Roller Wheel "Daisy Dash" and the felt Flower Fusion (see p. 177 of the catalog, link at right of page, I hope). To get the 2 colors on the roller wheel, use a light colored jumbo ink cartridge (I used Bashful Blue) in your handle and ink the roller up really well. Remove wheel (careful not to smudge!) and remove cartridge and replace wheel in handle. Take a darker marker (I used Brilliant Blue) and color just the flowers or other element you want to highlight, turning the wheel around as you go. Now you're ready to roll the wheel on your card stock. Here's the card I came up with. Enjoy your day!
