Okay, this is going to be more difficult than I thought ... saying goodbye to the soon-to-be-retired stamp set, Bud Basics. It's GOT to be one of my all-time favorite stamp sets! It's not one of those stamps sets I've used a couple of times and ends up sitting on the shelf for years to come. Every time I use it, it's new to me. HERE are other projects I've made with this stamp set in the past.
This card uses Jen del Muro's SKETCH FOR YOU TO TRY combined with the color combination of Chocolate Chip, Purely Pomegranate, Soft Sky, and Certainly Celery.
The main image panel was stamped in Chocolate Chip using the Basics Outline Jumbo Wheel. The outline of the flowers were stamped again in Chocolate Chip with the flowers stamped in Purely Pomegranate and Soft Sky, cut out and popped up on Stampin' Dimensionals. Dew Drops adorn the flower centers. The Basics Outline Jumbo Wheel was rolled vertically with Versamark ink on the large Soft Sky cardstock background panel and mounted on a Chocolate Chip card base.
