I've chosen Betsy's Blossoms to showcase this month because it's so versatile and screams spring and summer. On top of the cute flowers, this set has an adorable little bird to match.

 

Look closely at the center of the middle flower.  You'll see one of the New Vintage Faceted Designer Buttons.

 

 

This shows what you can do with great stamp set and a few supplies.  Quick, easy, fun.

 

Tips & Tricks:  Stamp and emboss your foreground image before stamping the "background" images to prevent powder from sticking where you don't want it.  Simply wipe the excess ink off the embossed image when you're done.
