With the Royal Wedding just around the corner Red, White and Blue are the order of the day!

I have incorporated a little Stamping too – very subtle.  With stamping it doesn’t have to be the main focus of the card, it can be just a small element which just finishes a card off.

The stamping element in this case are the little red circles and swirls in three places just around the main focus of the flowers.  To me they completed the card.  It needed a little something else and that was it!
