Hibiscus Paradise

 


I love all things tropical and my niece who is going on a cruise (out of California) to Mexico just gives me tropical vibes. So I wanted something colorful. The 'Happy Hibiscus' stamp set does just that! After I stamped the images... I was able to Emboss and die-cut the flowers all in one go! How fun is that! I used Stampin' Blends to create vibrant colorful flowers.
I added Wink of Stella to the flowers to make them all shine.

Thanks for stopping by!

Beautiful Swirl

 



I loved the layout of Stampin'Gala's card (found on Pinterest).... so I chose to use the same layout for my card. I wanted to use Flirty Flamingo as my "niece" (Best Friend's daughter) loves anything pink (my kinda gal).
I love how my background piece works with this card. It's the new 'Swirls of Magic' Embossing Folder. I can see where I'll be using this folder a lot in my cards!
I added a Wink of Stella to the flower petals to make them shine.

Thanks for taking a closer look!
