Today I have used The Lady digital stamp from The Paper Shelter, our generous sponsor this week, to make some flower-filled cards.  This digital stamp set comes with a traditional black & white digital stamp, along with a pre-coloured image and matching patterned paper.  Unfortunately I'm not able to colour at the moment, so it was a real bonus to be able to use the pre-coloured image and still create some cards.

I started by planning my card design on my Silhouette Studio design mat.  I wanted to make 5" x 7" top folding cards, so I sized the lattice panel cut file to 4 3/4" x 6 3/4" then sized the image to fit inside.  I added some digital paper to the background of two of the panels, having the PNG format of the image meant that it layered perfectly.  I printed the image panels then cut using my Silhouette Cameo.  I also cut some white lattice panels to mat the inside of each card.  This lovely lady image has lots of roses decorating her hair, hat and dress, so of course I had to add even more pretty pink roses to my cards, along with lots of luscious green foliage.   I used three different leaf cut files and cut several sets of each so that I could mix and match different elements from each one around my rose clusters.

NOW it's YOUR turn!
