I get asked a lot to create backgrounds. I love doing it because you can play with whatever colors catch your eye at the time. Using the Bough punch is a great way to add a little more leaves to really make the card come to life. I used Granny Apple Green and Vellum for leaves.
When creating this background, use only the outlines and use the leaves first. By using the leaves first you can see the spaces where the flowers go and it is easier to stamp the flowers. The colors used are Granny Apple Green and Coastal Cabana. Use the 2022-2024 In color Matte Decorative Dots for the centers of the flowers. When creating the hexagon, add the white on top of a scrap piece of Coastal Cabana and use your larger scissors to cut slightly larger to add a splash of color to the sentiment.

Card #2 – Sometimes you have to pull out a Retired products for the Perfect Card
I love both the Forever Fern DSP and the Happy Birthday To You Sale-a-Bration stamp set. I think this makes a fabulous wedding card. I will show you how I came up with this idea.
I think this stamp set was a keeper. So I wanted to share how this card can create a gorgeous Wedding card. This was a Sale-a-bration
