InStyle Stamps projects

I am a little behind on posting my projects for InStyle Stamps .. .some been posted on the ISS blog but not here, so here they all are.  They all use stamps from the latest release, Patty's Pretty Posies.

 I used Fower Row for this very CAS card I made this morning...
 The image is simply stamped across the card blank and coloured in using my copics (BV000, BV02, YG03 YG11), and the sentiment stamped onto the corner.

It fits both this week's Totally Papercrafts CAS challenge, and Less is More's OLC + flowers or trees challenge, and The Secret Crafter Saturday Challenge - a stamped flower.

Here is bird bath ...
 Again coloured with my pens and then cut out using my nesties.  The dp is Basic Grey Pyrus.  I added some flowers and ribbon from my stash.

Here is Flower Row again, using the sketch from this month's sketch challenge.
 I coloured the image in using my promarkers (canary, yellow and primrose, apple, meadow green and leaf).  I added lots of little dots in the background (pastel blue), and then cut out using a MArianne Creatible die, and inked the edges in yellow.  The dp is Basic Grey Origins, with some braid from my stash.

Finally here is Flower Row again ... it was posted on Wednesday's Plaid highlight .. yep I'm late!!
 I sprayed a terracotta pot white and then stamped the image round the top several times ... and left it to dry for 2 days.  I did a couple of test stamps on the inside to check when it was dry!!

 Using papers from Basic Grey's Koishi pad that I am not keen on, I created this serendipity effect.  I used Plaid's Mod Podge glue for outdoors, and stuck the paper on.  I then covered it with 3 layers of the glue, letting each dry before adding the next .. so I can use it outside (hopefully!!).  I am entering this into this week's Simon Says Stamp challenge - anything but a card.
