Stampin’ Up Flowers of Friendship Hello
Hello Everyone ~ I have some simple flowers with the Stampin’ Up Flowers of Friendship Hello idea.
I love simple flowers for use on my cards. They can be combined with busy paper for a great look. I used 2 busy pattern papers with the flowers of friendship stamps and coordinating punch for this simple layout.
This is a fun stamp set to play with. I love the individual flowers as well as the flower spray. It makes beautiful cards.
The colors for this card were from the color challenge we have this month in the World Card Making Group Facebook Group. We were to use Balmy Blue, Granny Apple Green, Night of Navy and a neutral. This is a great color combination if you are looking for colors that go together.
I used 2 pattern papers that were from different collections on this card. I love how they are so bright and blend well even. Make sure you check out your pattern papers as you may find some that make a great combination.
I love the layered flowers you can create with this stamp set and coordinating punch. Check out the ones I made in the photo below.
