Hi Connie! I’m a demo in No California. I saw your stamp set in the catty yesterday! Oh my! They nailed your inspiration. I remember you making card with now retired stamp. Brought back memories of those cards. Just had to let you know.
Thanks Patti! I can’t wait to share it with everyone. I’m so glad you liked it!!!
These are beautiful cards!
What a wonderful way to use flash cards….as you always say “We love our flash cards.” Yes, we do. Love the different looks for these cards. Planning on making several sets to add to my Mother Day basket gifts along with homemade treats to friends.
Stay safe, stay healthy.
Great cards.
I love how I can use the leftover cardstock from other projects. Circles, squares, rectangles, triangles or ovals. All will work. I happy that you have settled (for now) into your new home. Every time I moved I would re-settle after a few months.
Hi! Connie, can you please clarify what “flash cards” are?
Happy to help! It’s a great way of making cards with cardstock that is ready to go AND it saves cardstock too. Here is the link where you can learn about it – https://simplysimplestamping.com/card-making-using-the-flash-card-system/
