Royal Blog Tour - A rose by any other name...

Cordial Greetings, my most anticipated guests! I hope you are having a fantastic tour along these royal paths of inspiration! Whilst you pass a moment here, I hope you find pleasure in the beautiful and versatile set I have the pleasure to present: Fifth Avenue Floral.

This set bloomed into popularity with several beautiful watercolor techniques, and is a perfect focal point for cards to celebrate birthdays, weddings, births, achievements, or other special days. For holidays, coordinate some beautiful colors and this set adds pizazz! It also can be a beautiful accent for sympathy or remembrance cards, and says "Sorry" ever so sweetly.

The most wonderful thing about this stamp set though, is the joyful use beyond cards! Roses are a universal symbol of love, perfect to add to wedding announcements or favors, accessories like the Guest Book or signs, and of course - the Scrapbook! Weddings, Graduations, Sweet Sixteen... dozens of events this set can add a special touch to. And then there are the OTHER two flowers!!

The beauty of it - it's not limited to paper! This set has crisp bold lines, great to stamp onto fabric, wood, glass, icing for cupcakes or cakes, pottery... I know you have only a short time with me, so I won't go on (and on, and on!)... suffice it to say this set is AWESOME! It should be at the top of your wish list!

To share with you on the tour, I created a gift for a sweet girl turning Thirteen this month! A plain metal make up box I "made-up" to look slightly more sassy...

  5. How cute! I have to admit it is hard for me to think out of the box and not do cards. This would be great to do on the top of a laptop to jazz it up on on the top of the Clear box storage caddy. Now that really needs something!

  6. How smart you are! Love that you used this set in that way. I love that set and need to get it out and play with it. I thought about using the set on shrink film and making earrings out of it.

  7. Cute project idea! I thought about layering the rose (stamp several times & cut out pieces) on a tissue box. Then, saying 'Hope your smelling the roses soon' or something like that. TFS.

  17. What a cleaver idea. I too like the diversity of this stamp set. During the summer I had the opportunity to make a lei out of the cut out and colored flowers it turned out really cut. I put plastic beads in between a two sided flower and strung it up with yarn I also had some green leaves intermittently between flowers. Have fun and create something fun.

  34. I have used this lovely set for so many things but after seeing this adorable box I thought about using it on candles. There are so many colors that the tissue paper could be colored and once heat set on the candles they would be perfectly delightful gifts!

    Thanks for sharing this great design!

  43. What a great, great idea and I have one granddaughter that just turned 13! I think she would love this. Non-card idea -- hmmm, I think I would try embossing the designs on glass (around the edges) and put a favorite photo or memento inside a shadow box.

  44. Wonderful Inspiration for one of my favorite stamp sets. I've been thinking about using this set on a shower curtain just not sure about its permanancy. Maybe with Stazon? Lamp Shades would be cool too.
    Thanks for sharing the out of the box (or should I say on the box?)idea.

  46. Wow! I love your Make-up case idea. I have a couple tween's that this would be a perfect gift for!

    Let's see... a non-card idea as to how I'd use the rub on's if I won.... I'd incorporate them onto a champaign glass for my daughter's 21st Birthday. She's a wonderful young lady and a special toast from Mom would definately be a keepsake for years to come.

    Warmest Wishes~
