I wanted a tropical feel, but I didn’t buy the tropical stamp set. So I pulled out Eastern Bloom instead. I stamped it first. Ran it through the emboss folder and then cut it to go on the card.
Stamps: Eastern Blooms, Sincere Salutatoins
Inks: Melon Mambo, Bermuda Bay and Crushed Curry
Papers: Whisper White, Melon Mambo, Bermuda Bay
Accessories: lattice emboss folder, ribbon, punches
Difficulty Rating (1-Easy, 5-Hard): 2
Cute card, Paula! I love how you made the Eastern Blooms look tropical. That’s a great idea!

This is a great card!
