Floral Phrases Wedding Wishes

I hope you aren’t tired of Floral Phrases yet because I have one more to share with you from our Pool Party.  Team member Roseann designed this beautiful card.  She paid the stamp set with the Floral Boutique designer paper.  You just can’t go wrong with this wonderful duet.

Roseann's Floral Phrases
Roseann used the Curvy Trio punch to help create elegant corners.
Unfortunately this great punch retired so you’ll have to improvise just a bit.
That’s the reason you need to check closely when the retired list comes out — you don’t want to miss out on those great products.

One Wild Ride

My son-in-law has a motorcycle.
He has been very fortunate this summer to be able to take
one ride across the state and two across the country rides.
Today’s card seems appropriate for him.  His birthday is later this month,
not sure I can wait that long — or maybe I’ll have to make him another card
later using this stamp set — One Wild Ride.
