The first time I saw the Branch Out stamp set, I knew I had to have it! The sample card on page 100 of the Stampin' Up! Spring-Summer '09 Idea Book & Catalog sealed the deal.
I found these frames in a set of 3 at the Target Dollar Spot and knew they'd be perfect for a nice little wall grouping using Branch Out.
The Branch Out set has 8 stamps in it for creating any season you'd like. I combined spring and summer here to match the 3 frames I found. All you have to do is use different colors for the "leaves" stamp in the set to make the different seasons, or substitute the snowflakes for leaves.
TIP: I used my Stamp-a-ma-Jig to position my leaves, snowflakes, birdhouse, bird, tire swing, and butterflies (there are rain boots, too), but I have since made another set that I'll show you later where I didn't use the SAMJ and everything turned out just fine. It's a very forgiving stamp set!
The Branch Out stamp set would make great cards, scrapbook pages, and gifts, too!
