The Ornate Garden Specialty Designer Series Paper and the Ornate Style stamp set are the real stars of today’s thank you card, which is the third Make & Take project from our Candy Hearts team meeting in April. (Don’t worry; we didn’t meet in person. I mailed the kits to everyone beforehand, and we met via Zoom.) The large floral image is stamped in Early Espresso ink and colored using Stampin’ Blends Markers.
