Lesson 126

The Garden in Bloom Stamp Set is a photopolymer set that can be used as a single stamp, a two step stamp and a three step stamp. It follows the same concept as the Lotus Flower in Sale-a-bration. The possibilities with this set and limitless. Here is a peek.
This is a Centre Stair Step Card.

The second set for this lesson is Oh My Goodies. Quite a strange name for a set but it's very versatile.
I have made a box using the Gift Bag Punch Board with four matching cards and envelopes.

Lesson125

Lots of birthday cards in this lesson and they were made very easy with the Build a Birthday Stamp Set. The matching bag was made with the Gift Bag Punch Board.
The second part of the lesson was driven by the Go Wild DSP Stack. I paired it with Zoo Babies. These cards would be suitable for new babies and small children.

And the scraps were too delicious to waste!
