Red Rubber Digitals - Flowers

Red Rubber Digitals is a new digital stamp site with some of the same images as Red Rubber Designs and also some new ones.   If you like high-quality digital products - stamps, images, clip art, patterned designer paper and more - you'll love Red Rubber Digitals!  I'm exited to show you some cards I made with one of the digital stamp sets called Flowers

Flower 1
This card shows one of my favorite aspects of digital designs - being able to make the image whatever size one desires.  In this layout, I've made one large flower and five smaller flowers from the same digital image.  

This first card also uses a digital sentiment (also sizeable as desired) from Nature's Greetings digital set.  I colored the images with Copic Markers and used an embossing folder for the background cardstock.
 

Flower 2
The second card uses another image from Flowers and a sentiment from Nature's Greetings.  The image is colored with Copic Markers and cut out with Spellbinders Nestabilites Labels 16.  The background paper is from my stash - not sure the origin.

Flower 3
The third card is the last of the flower images in the Flowers digital set.  I colored it with Copics and added some jewels to the centers of the flowers and on the bottom of the card over some fabric lace.  The image is cut out with Spellbinders Nestabilites Petite Scalloped Circles Large.
