When Choosing A Stamp Set:
When choosing a stamp set my advice is to choose one that has sentiments and greetings; this way you’ll have variety. The Stampin’ Up! Fancy Flora Suite Collection has 2 stamp sets—one with images and the other with sentiments so that’s a great choice. Choose a stamp set that represents you or the person you wish to make a card for. There are so many options!
I must admit that the ease of this flap fold card and the combination of so many great sentiments make some super cards!
Decide Whether to Use Craft Embellishments or not
When you make your card you can decide if you want to add any embellishments like pearls, sequins, ribbons, or twine. As you can see, on some of my cards I used them and on others, I did not.

Hi Sharon, I love your cards, and I used your design to make my first cut into the lovely Favoured Flowers DSP. I had to make a few tweaks to make it work for metric card sizes!
I am so glad! Thank you for letting me know that you enjoyed it!
