I included two of each color in the set, making a total of ten cards with matching envelopes. It's very simple stamping. I stamped the outlines in black ink and then filled in with solid color. Easy-peasy. I love the deliberate loose, non-matchy look. I stamped a sentiment from Beyond Basic Borders by Papertrey Ink. Then I just mounted each stamped piece on its matching color of cardstock and a white card base.
Aren't those such soft, pretty colors? I really enjoyed making these cards. After I finished them, I stamped a single flower in the corner of an envelope to match each color. That extra step really dressed up the set of cards and added a professional look.
I hope my friend likes this set! It makes me long for spring. :)
