Artistic Expression for FMS

My latest box of Stampin' Up! things arrived this week. I broke out the first suite, Artistic Expression, and looked for inspiration to give it a whirl. The sketch at Freshly Made Sketches fitted the bill perfectly.

Here's a sneak peek at this beautiful new suite: stamps, dies, Specialty DSP and an ephemera pack consisting of gold die cuts and iridescent, self-adhesive sequins.



So here is my first play with this suite, using the sketch. I've used part of the foliage die cut as the vertical banner element. I added in some background stamping as well as an abstract flower and leaves which were stamped and die cut.


I also took the chance to try out some of the new In-Colours again: Polished Pink, Soft Succulent and Evening Evergreen.


To finish, I added in some of the self-adhesive iridescent sequins from the Ephemera Pack.

Expect to see more of the most amazing  suite - it's got a lot to give, I think!
