I have 2 cards for you today featuring the SIMPLE BEAUTY stamp set.

Social Distancing is the ideal time to COLOR don't you think :) So I decided to stamp a Background using the small outline image in SIMPLE BEAUTY stamp set then colored with Artist Markers.
Finished the background by adding details with R902, B635, B313, and TG03
Scribbled a rectangle piece of paper with the Blue Artist Markers, and cut the CONGRATS Die from it...placed it over the washi tape..embellished with sequins :)
Supplies used for this card:
Artist Markers: C001, Y204, TG03, B201, R902, B635, B313,TG03
******
Supplies used for this card:
Crisp Inks:Mountain Mist, Sea Glass, Iceberg,
Buttercream, Warm Sunshine, Limestone, Silver Stone
Artist Markers: TG03, B635, B002, B313, B802

Hello from Minnesota! The teal, gray and yellow combo is a winner but what I appreciate most about these 2 cards is that they challenged my perspective thru watching your process--- stamping the flowers with a color you then used to fill the *negative* space for a no-line look: genius! And then using the full stamp set for an outline, but proving not *all* flowers needed to be filled in to achieve a stunning result: inspired! Thanks so much!
Hello from Minneapolis! Gorgeous cards and so much talent!

Hi from Fairfax, Virginia, USA! I really like the fun sunny flowers that you created on both of your cards.
