A beautiful floral stamp set will create cards for any type of greeting. Whether it’s birthday or sympathy they are always appropriate. The best part about floral images is the creative freedom you have to make them any color you’d like.
Today’s tutorial uses the FREE stamp set from Sale-A-Bration “Amazing You” and the Stampin’ Blends. But there’s no blending required for this card! Simply apply the color to the two different layers of the flowers. I’ve included written instructions below for those of you using a mobile device. I also have a free PDF tutorial available for those that would like to download and save this project for a later day.
