You're In My Thoughts

Lotus Blossoms Made Me Think of You!

I think I have Lotus Blossom Fever. Is there such an illness?

I'm seriously having so much fun trying different color combinations with this three-step stamp! I don't know why it took me soooo long to ink up this stamp from Sale-a-Bration 2015!

To create this card:

• The card base is So Saffron cardstock, 4-1/2" x 11", folded in half.
• Add a layer of Cucumber Crush cardstock, 3-1/2" x 5".
• The next layer is Designer Series Paper, cut to 3-1/4" x 4-3/4". This sample uses Sweet Sorbet (retired)
• Cut a piece of Whisper White 3" x 4-1/2".
• Stamp Your greeting in Calyspso Coral at the top. This sample uses You're in My Thoughts from A Dozen Thoughts.
• Stamp the 3 step Lotus Blossom using Calypso Coral, Crisp Cantaloupe and So Saffron, leaving room for the stems.
• Stamp the stem (2 stamps), using Garden Green for the center of the stem, then stamp off Garden Green before stamping the outer stem.
• Stamp some Gorgeous Grunge dots in So Saffron at the bottom.
• Adhere the Whisper white layer.

Voila!

There you have it - a simple pretty card that's flat and easy to mail, to let someone know you're thinking of them!
