Card: Flowering Cactus

Hello and Welcome! 

Welcome to today's post! I am excited to share today's creation because I was able to pull out some of my new Stampin' Up! goodies and put them to work.  I started today's project with a little inspiration from a few challenges.  

And here is today's project...


How pretty are those cactus images?!? Today's card features the lovely, new Flowering Cactus product medley.  I love the way this card turned out and I love how the colors came together.  This is the second "cactus" stamp set that I have purchased through Stampin' Up! and I have loved each of the cards put together with these images.  The retired set is known as Flowering Desert and I'm sure I'll be able to pair these sets in future projects!  Don't forget the items you already have on hand - pair them with new items for all sorts of projects.  


 The card features the Flowering Cactus die-cuts as well as the lovely Designer Series Paper.  The sentiments included in the stamp set are too cute and today's card features the "Happy Looks Good On You".

    Love this card, it's adorable! I didn't buy Flowering Desert and then kicked myself for not getting it...I just ordered this suite and can't wait to get it in my hot little hands :) The two cactus on this make me think of a newly married couple. Thanks for playing along with us at SUO Challenges, hope to see you for our new challenge starting today!
