Live Your Dream

I found these stamped images I made a while back for a project I was working on. Lots of times I will do 2 sets of images and set the extra one aside to use later........ then I forget about it and it's a great surprise to find, and fun to use.

This is one of my favorite sets from the SU Mini, It's called LIVE YOUR DREAM. I used Groovy Guava, Ruby Red and Apricot Appeal. I was not a fan of Groovy Guava when it first came out, but it's growing on me.

I used my tall skinny oval spellbinder dies for the bigger flowers, and the petite spellbinder circles for the smaller flowers.

Supplies: Silver Brads, Ribbon, Flowers, Gel Pen, Corner Rounder Punch, Cuttlebug.
Pin It!

Absolutely gorgeous Cindy! Wow...those colours really pop together. I didn't like Guava much at first either but it's growing on me too, just in time for it to retire...lol
TFS!
