More Rogue Flowers

I wanted to see what else I could do with the flower stamp from Just Sayin' from Rogue Redhead Designs and stamped it onto various vintage book pages and cut them out. I layered a smaller, slightly crumpled one with a larger one and left other small ones plain. I also cut out the individual petals of a couple flowers, used bundled sage Distress Stain on them and voila - leaves!
I adhered them to a 7Gypsies book cover with a stamped background panel in the center. The background panel collage is made up of the flourish from Relish Reading and words and quotes from Floriculture all on paper rubbed with distress ink and flicked with water.

Here's a closer view of the flowers - both basic and dimensional. Be sure to check out the current Rebel Challenge on the RRD blog post HERE where the theme is stamped backgrounds. The challenge runs until March 4th - why not join in?

Such a different style achieved purely by stamping onto a different surface. Nothing as satisfying as finding different ways of using our stamp stash.
Penny, I hope you are having a wonderful day today.
