Hello Lovelies! This was supposed to be a birthday card, but I got thinking about all the special women in my life who have been a mother to me...and here we are. The Flower Power Set from Simon Says Stamp's Celebrate Release is so delightfully retro that I leaned into the 60s flower child vibes and turned up the cheery to 100!!!
The matching stencil makes coloring these bold blooms easy and sprinkled a few water droplets for a slightly distressed effect.
