I found these Martha Stewart cards for dirt cheap.
Decided to use these cards for a super quick project this weekend with Mako, Blanche & friends. They usually make an easy card and one that takes more time. Added sparkly hibiscus laser cuts from Island Scrapbooking and washi tape. Instant card….blink your eye and it’s done.


Happy Crafting!

Decided to play around with the Inka Gold by Viva.
I used the Jade Green on the Poppy Stamp die.


Start with Ranger’s Craft Mat. Clean up is so easy with this mat.

I used my finger to smudge the Inka Gold Jade Green on the Leafy Sprig Border. Instantly see the shimmer. Let dry then use on your project.
Drying time was quick. I used a baby wipe to clean the mat.
Here is the card. The Laser cut Hello, Poppy Stamp die, hibiscus flowers, Inka Gold and mat all from Island Scrapbooking. Cannot wait to play with the Aquamarine and Gold. Check out the blog from Island Scrapbooking.
