Wow Flowers & Flores Llamativas ...

Greetings from the tail-end of the 3-day weekend. Here are a some cards I created using the new Wow Flowers stamp set and its counterpart in Stampin' Up!'s Spanish Catlog, Flores Llamativas. Being a native Californian, I like having stamps with sayings like 'muchas gracias' so I was happy to see more Spanish stamp sets coming out. All of the cards are made using colors from the new In Colors collection.

Tips:


  • To creat the large scallop, use the Pennant die and Big Shot die cut machine

  • To create a flat rhinestone brad embellishment, cut the prongs off using craft & rubber scissors and attach the rhinestone top to the button using a glue dot.

  • To make the 'Muchas Gracias' stand out on the Tangerine Tango cardstock, stamp with Riding Hood Red.


Enjoy ...
