Live life in full bloom
Hello wonderful crafty people. Today I have 2 cards from one stamped image. I love it when you get more than one card from a design.

Once the entire image was coloured in I trimmed it down to...

I took the large leaf stamp from the same set and added a few leaves to the flowers. Next I stamped the...
