I've been super busy today, so I wanted to create some cards that were fast, yet cute. I found just the thing using the retiring Flower Fest and Sincere Salutations stamps sets!
CASEd from Mary Brown at Stamper Camper's Corner.
I still can't get enough of the white embossed look of Flower Fest blooms on any color of card stock! But, then I discovered how much cuter they are when you added a bit of darker matching ink to the centers! So simple, but it takes it to a whole other level! Here, I used Island Indigo ink on Baja Breeze card stock, with a Baja Breeze Seam Binding accent.
I love this easy-peasy technique so much that I decided to have a Flower Fest-ival!
EEEeeeee! It's Two Cool cards multiplied by three! Everytime I added the darker color of ink to the different colors of card stock it made me happy, Happy, HAPPY! And, the best part is that it only took me 30 MINUTES to make all six cards! You can't beat that for creative efficiency! Fantastic!
Here is Marina Mist ink on Bashful Blue card stock, accented with White Organza Ribbon.
This is Regal Rose ink on Blushing Bride card stock, with Blushing Bride Pleated Ribbon (retired).
Here I used More Mustard ink on Daffodil Delight, with Daffodil Delight Seam Binding (coming soon).
Next, I tried retiring Poppy Parade ink on retiring Peach Parfait card stock, with retired Everyday Enchantment Sale-A-Bration ribbon.
Finally, I tried retiring Concord Crush on Wisteria Wonder card stock, with Wisteria Wonder Ruffled Ribbon.
Flower Fest may be one of those sets that I just can't part with yet! And, I know that I'll have to save Sincere Salutations because it is the most versatile, prettiest, and all-emcompassing greeting set that I've ever owned! That's no lie!
You still have a chance to get your hands on both of these awesome sets, but not for long!
