Fifth Avenue Floral is such a classy stamp set, and perfect for designing spring cards. So when two of my favorite challenges, Our Creative Corner and Crazy 4 Challenges, were sponsoring a Spring themed challenge, I reached for this set without hesitation. Plus, I had been wanting to try the Faux Cloisonne technique, which requires line stamps. What fun! So grab your stamps and a magazine, and try it! I’ll show you how!
The Stampin’ Schach Tips:
Rub the ad with the Embossing Buddy to remove static.

How completely awesome and creative. This is an amazing concept for being able to get that unique blending of colors that you can’t necessarily find anywhere else but in a magazine. This idea definitely helps to create those one-of-a-kind cards for that someone special. Thanks for the great tip!
