Botanicals

Botanical

I love seeing colors used together that I wouldn't normally put together myself.  The Botanical Designer Paper in the new Occasions Catalog does just that. Below you will find one card my club did using this stamp set and matching designer paper.  The Botanical line combines one of my favorite greens Mossy Meadow (the other fav is Wild Wasabi), Hello Honey and an unexpected Cajun Craze.  I hadn't really looked at this color much until now.  Feel free to message me and I can pull together a kit for you to make this card!
