So I was wandering through a local craft store and happened upon this gorgeous Tim Holtz Wildflower Stems #2 die set. I came home and immediately cut them out and decided to put them onto an ink smooshed background. As usual, I couldn’t create just one, so here are the three options I finally decided on. So bright and cheery, just like spring! 🌸❤️ (Supply list is below)

I’d also like to point out that the Ranger Inkssentials Specialty Stamping Paper is a fantastic card stock for ink smooshing that I just discovered. It drys fast, doesn’t warp as badly as watercolor paper, and the colors look fantastic! I highly recommend it. (FYI I’m not a sponsor, I just really like it. ☺️)

Also, if you visit a store and what you want is out of stock, be sure and ask to be notified by email when the item is back in stock. It’s usually quite quick and always worth the wait. 😉

Thanks for watching!

Remember, if mailing a card with layers and embellishments in the United States, be sure and buy “non-machinable” postage so your cards don’t get smooshed in the USPS postal machines.
