An old favourite
Posted: September 8, 2008 Filed under: Terrific Tulips 2 CommentsThis week’s stamp simply challenge is part of Sharon’s 1 Year Blog Anniversary. The challenge itself is being hosted by one of her design team, Dee, at her blog Stampin cuz I Love 2. Dee is a talented 2 and 3 step stamper so that is the challenge to make a card using 2 or 3 step stamping. When I looked through my sets I discovered I don’t have any current 2 step sets, so I looked on another shelf and pulled out the first 2 step stamping set I bought, Terrific Tulips.
I decided to recreate one of my early designs with this set, but as the original card is long gone I was going from memory. I think my original was prettier but I still like the three panel effect in this card. It was a simple card to make, after the stamping I added a bit of organza ribbon such as might be found on a fresh bunch of tulips for a friend.
Supplies:
Stamps: Terrific Tulips, Pocket Silhouettes
Inks: Always Artichoke, Pumpkin Pie, Apricot Appeal
Cardstock: Confetti white, Mellow Moss
Also: Olive and celery organza ribbon

Oh my, this card just makes me smile!!! I have always loved this set and often wonder why I never purchased it. I remember using this set at a SU workshop hosted by a good friend. It was a beautiful summer day and the party was in her garden. It couldn’t have been a more wonderful afternoon!!! Thanks for those memories!!! LOVE what you’ve done with this set — truly beautiful!!! I love tulips, proabably my most favorite flower to use in a stamp!!! So glad you could play — thanks so much!!!
