Peaceful Poppies Elements Tutorial

PeacefulPoppiesElements 1
It may not feel like it, but spring is just around the corner. I'm shaking off the winter blues by creating with some gorgeous new floral stamps from the Mini Catalogue. I think you'll love the style and luxurious colours of the Peaceful Poppies Suite as much as I do.

This is actually a mega-suite, meaning it has two stamp sets and two die sets, plus lots of other awesome coordinating accessories. One of the items from this suite is a hidden gem that I'm showcasing in this month's tutorial, so check it out below!

Be happy, create and stamp a little ....

PEACEFUL POPPIES ELEMENTS TUTORIAL

Even a Mini Catalogue can have hidden gems tucked away in it's pages! The Peaceful Poppies Elements are a crafting treasure just waiting to be discovered. This little kit packs a big punch at a small price. It includes 8 sheets of die-cut printed accents that coordinate with the Peaceful Poppies suite.

These aren't your run-of-the-mill die-cuts either. You get a whole selection of die cut images, shapes, and labels with embossing, foil accents, coloured images, and printed vellum that make it quick and simple to step-up the style on your projects.

Plus, if you are wanting to up the artistry, these elements are great for techniques like colouring, embossing, emboss resist, and more.
