WWYS Guest Designer

Good morning stampy friends!  Normally I do Scrappy Mondays, but today that's been preempted by a guest designer gig :D

My Celestina Warbeck card won the challenge for using Cauldron Bubble, and I was very excited about that, and then even MORE excited when I found out that I actually have the stamp set to be a guest designer for today's What Will You Stamp? challenge!

Country Home is a beautiful stamp set and looks like something Joanna Gaines would design if she did rubber stamps instead of houses.  I really like the coordinating Country Lane DSP as well, so I decided to use them together.

I had the idea for the pitcher and flowers and when I sat down to make it I couldn't decide between stamping tone-on-tone (left), or coloring in the image (right), so I made both.  It's a little hard to tell because of how the cards are tilted in the photo, but the main image panel is tilted to the left a little bit and the sentiment strip is square with the edge of the card.  I used vellum for the sentiment strip on the left card just because I didn't want to cover up the pitcher.  I used Mint Macaron cardstock on the right one because I used the other container and it didn't bother me to have part of it covered up on that one.  What's funny is the designer paper I used is the same piece--the Blackberry Bliss pattern is the back side of the cotton pattern.

Go check out more lovely projects at the What Will You Stamp? blog and I hope you'll join along in the challenge!
