Tips from the show

• You can create variation in flower sizes by using the different die options within the set—use smaller flowers as accents and larger ones as focal points.
• The papers in the collection are colour-coordinated so they work together beautifully no matter how you combine them.
• If you prefer clean and simple cards, you can skip the vintage inking and keep the flowers and sentiment crisp and bright.
