I was really excited this week to receive some new stamp sets from the new Stampin’ Up! Summer Mini Catalogue, soon to be released on December 1st. This stamp I have used on this layout is from a set called “For Father” which is a great set to make male cards. Also new is the patterned paper I have used and is from the Designer Series called Ginger Blossom.

I took this photo about a year ago when our apple tree was blooming and often thought about how I would scrap it, so when I got this stamp I thought staight away of scrapping this photo.

Recipe: Cardstock: Ruby Red, Whisper White, Old Olive and Chocolate Chip. Stamp Sets: Back ground - Canvas and For Father.
