Simon Says Stamp - Mandala Blossoms Friendship Card


Colorful card with mandala blossoms, butterflies, and "Love You Bunches" text. Set against textured blue and purple background.

Hello Lovelies! This card will always be special to me as I made my FIRST YouTube Card Tutorial for it! I think the video is waaay too long for just one card, but after you take a peek at this post, I hope you'll grab your favorite coffee or tea, check out the video and make along with me.


Today's blogpost will share the highlights of the Mandala Blossoms Friendship card to give you a quick overview of how it comes together. The Mandala Blossoms Set of stamp, stencils and dies makes this card easy, and this will be beautiful in so many color schemes!
