Anna-Karin<\/a> made a Mother’s Day card in a circular shape. She used the Simon Says Stamp Halftone Circle stamp <\/a>for the background and the You Shine die<\/a> for the main sentiment. The two flowers come from the Thoughtful Flower wood stamp<\/a> and the Thoughtful Flowers stamp<\/a> set.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Barbara<\/a> created two feminine floral tags using the Spring Bouquets<\/a> stamp set from Simon Says Stamp’s new Born To Sparkle collection.

Lols <\/a>made a ‘hello’ card for a special friend. I used a new XL Rose Bouquet Stencil<\/a> and a Solid Grid Background Cling Stamp<\/a> along with a Beautiful Die Set<\/a>. I used a selection of Distress Oxide Inks<\/a> and Sprays<\/a> to color, Modeling Paste<\/a> to add texture and finished with a liberal sprinkling of Prisma Glitter<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
