Paper Samplers

I bought the Large Letter dies just for this project.  My nephew and his girlfriend were expecting a baby.  I decided I wanted to make their gift.  This is what I came up with! 

I used the background paper (some old Stampin' Up! DSP I had - at least I believe it is SU ) as a starting point since they weren't sure about a colour scheme yet.  It went from there.  I rummaged through all of my stamps once the colours were chosen, picked one and on I went.  It is an old retired set called The Nicest Things, and the sentiment is from a current, but retiring, Follow Your Dreams. (The last of those two has an amazing dream catcher stamp in it, and there is a coordinating die set too!)

I punched out the sentiment and some additional layers with the Story Label punch.  I used a ton of dimensionals on this project, and glue dots for the flowers too.  I used some brads to attach the flower layers together.  

They loved the gift, and so much so that I offered to do another for my nephew's stepson.  The last picture is the one that I made to put up in our kitchen.  I think I have found another project that I love to do as much as making cards!
