ONE STAMP SET ..

So I used the party Swirls in pixie, canary & tangerine for
a fun festive background covering..






 This on the sentiment is in Archival Black, the flowers are in
glacier & sweet pea. I used the glitter pen to enhance the flowers.
This was a perfect card for a wedding for my Niece.

Using the sentiment and the swirls as a 
                                  background for this card!
This could be for a graduation card or any
other fun achievement..
This stamp set comes in a kit to make other fun Wedding
and Congratulations cards. Can be ordered on my Website Jodiepark.ctmh.com
