When I ordered the new Happy Hibiscus bundle from Stampin' Up!'s November Online Exclusives release I didn't expect to fall in love with it so quickly! This is a definite keeper. I received it on Thursday and by Friday afternoon I had at least 4 cards made with it! I think it took me all of about 2 - 3 hours to have those cards made, this included looking for a sketch on Pinterest! Three of the cards are the same layout, a Mojo sketch I found on Pinterest, but different color combinations. I used what is often referred to as color buddies or in the past Stampin' Up! would call them dynamic duos. They are two colors from the same color family one being darker than the other. They are perfect for when you are two step stamping which is the technique used with the Happy Hibiscus.
Here are the measurement details for the card. I will only list measurements so that you can choose any color you want. I will also share each card individually with their color combinations listed below them. Have fun creating, P.S. leave a comment letting me know which color duo you like the best. :)
