Make It Monday with Flowering Desert

Hi There Card Tutorial

I definitely have fond memories of living in New Mexico, and they come flooding back with the Flowering Desert Stamp Set.  Ok, so the iconic Saguaro Cacti don't actually grow in all deserts in the South.  Their only real native environment is in Sabino Canyon in Arizona, but we did have all sorts of other cacti.  This is a great stamp set for every day occasions.  And today's tutorial is back to #simplestamping.

Product of the Week: Flowering Desert Stamp Set

I love it when products are designed to work together so well that I don't have to think about finding products!  And that is EXACTLY what Stampin' Up! is doing when you see "You Can Make It" in their catalogs or online.  They have pulled together products that work together for you to make the projects they show.  I think about the only thing the "You Can Make It" sets don't include are adhesive and a paper trimmer, but otherwise, all you have to do is pick a "You Can Make It" collection and start stamping.  Of course, this stamp set is available on it's own as well, so you have two options, and that holds true for all the "You Can Make It" collections.

Ok, on to the stamp set!  The Flowering Desert Stamp Set includes many desert images that you can layer together.  It uses the new distinctive stamp technology, which means you'll get some amazing shading built in to your stamping already.  There's a little tidbit for stamping with distinctive stamps that I'll show you in the YouTube Tuesday tutorial, so stay tuned!
