I love tulips, I love soft colors, and I love card sketches that are a bit different. All that adds up to this fun card that I can’t wait to send to my bestie! She’s going to love it!
The special touches on this card include the Hive 3D Embossing Folder (if you don’t have a Cut & Emboss Machine, just leave the mat unembossed), the colors, and those very fun Pebble Embellishments!
For the Color Combination, I went with Smoky Slate, Blushing Bride, and Pear Pizzazz. Three soft colors that are perfect for a rainy day – without being dreary!
If you want something a bit brighter, then check out my Color Combination Library – there are lots of ideas in there for you!
And finally, this is a two-step stamp set, which makes it super simple to use! Check out other samples I’ve made with this stamp set here.
