Autumn Eucalyptus Bouquet

Hi Creative Friends,

Fall is one of my favorite times of the year. There are so many varied and luscious colors during this season with the turning of the leaves, pumpkins, and the rich, dark colors everywhere you look.  Eucalyptus is one of those things I think of in Autumn too so when the new Eucalyptus Elegance stamp and die set came out I knew I had to make something Autumn-y with it. I combined it with another favorite, Fall Bouquet to create this beautiful bouquet. A video is included so you can follow along with its creation.

Botanicals and Butterflies

Hi Creative Friends,

I am sharing a card design using the beautiful Botanicals and Butterflies stamp and die set by Pinkfresh Studios. I loved using this set. It is brilliant how you can remove the butterflies if you like or leave them in, It also is a cling/rubber stamp so it gives you great detail. Then, to make it more wonderful, it has a matching die set that makes a perfect cut around each element and coloring stencils, if you would like to use them. All these superb features make it a dream to work with!
