Use Brushstroke Paper from Stampin Up for Flowers
Use brushstroke paper from Stampin! Up! for flowers on a Thinking of you card.
This paper is new and appears in the new 2022/23 Annual Catalogue. It is very thin with a subtle pattern imprinted on the paper which makes it ideal for making flowers. The papers come in 3 colours: Blushing Bride, Night of Navy and Soft Succulent. Flowers are punched several times, layered together to add dimension and then curled up with a Bone Folder.
