Cacti in pots

Hi, Janja here!

The warm and sunny weather today is a great opportunity to share with you two cards with cacti.


I used:
- white card base: 5.3 x 5.3" (13,5 x 13,5 cm), folded
- watercolor paper: 4.5 x 4.5" (11,4 x 11,4 cm)
- colored cardstock
- Distress ink pads: mustard seed, wild honey, twisted citron, evergreen bough, cracked pistachio, aged mahogany, hickory smoke, vintage photo, walnut stain
- string
- plastic stencil
- self-adhesive pads, double-sided adhesive tape, glue

On the first card, spray watercolor paper in two colors, add a string and stamp an inscription. Cut out two cacti, and attach them on the background with self-adhesive pads.




For the second card, use a plastic stencil for the background. Cut out the shelf and place the cups on it. Add an inscription. Complete the card.





The new Mother's Day release is available in the online store. The dies are on sale at 25% off. 

Have a nice day.
