Using the gorgeous Beautifully Happy Stamp set.

I love working with Kraft Cardstock, it is so earthy and natural. The only thing is it is hard to stamp directly on the card and get a bright image.
In my weekly live I share some fabulous ideas on How to Colour Kraft Cardstock.
The stamp is Photopolymer and is 2 step stamping. This makes it so easy to create beautiful coloured images. You stamp the outline and then fill in the colour with 2 different stamps.
But for this card I have stamped with Craft Stampin’ Ink and then added the Colour with Water Colour Pencils.

Square cards just seem so elegant as does white on white. So combining the both I think works really well for this card.
The stamp that fills in the colour is very cleverly designed and also adds the shading.
Of course the highlight for me is that there is also a Bee in this stamp perfect!

A thank you greeting card. The card is a Basic White Square card with Sweet Sorbet Red flowers a White bow and 3 bees.
Striking bright Flower arrangement.

Quick easy and beautiful Thank you cards

Another bonus with 2 step stamping it makes it so easy to be able to create many cards all at once! Perfect when you need to make some Thank-you cards in a hurry!
