Trend Watch – Layered Flowers

I’m in love with those beautiful flower meadows in spring. The bright colors (there are flowers in every color you can think of) add a little bit of joy to my days. And I think that’s why I tend to use a lot of flowers in my crafting projects. They’re so versatile and you can use them for many occasions.

There are a couple of stamp sets that give you beautiful layered flowers these days. The layers give a little bit extra dimension to your flowers and some of them look almost like real flowers. Today I want to highlight some of these stamp sets.

Barbara Anders used a couple of different flowers from My Favorite Things to make this nice layered card. The flowers really pop with all those different colors.

When I saw the release from The Ton stamps I was really amazed by the pretty flowers they made. The different layers are really detailed and you get some great flowers with them. I love the colorful ‘thanks’ card Jess made.

Winnie and Walter has more stylized flowers but they’re very beautiful too. I love this card Joni Andaya made, great to brighten a friends day.

Yoonshun Hur created a beautiful card with the vintage style flowers from Altenew. She choose a beautiful color scheme with a watercolored background which makes the card very trending, with a vintage touch from the roses.

And of course I had to add a card that used a stamp set from Wplus9. They have lovely stamp builder sets that you can use to make great bouquets. I love the colorful card Lydia created with the beautiful ‘more fresh cuts’ stamps.
