More Cards Using Micia Clear Stamp

Hello again, dear friends!

This is Jasleen , back here to share some more cards I made using the Micia stamp set-Floral invitation I received in my DT kit. To view the first card that I made, click HERE.

And here's the stamp I'm talking about, alongwith those gorgeous Washi Tapes  from Lulupu store:-

And here's the first card:-



On the front

On the inside

So, it's one of the ideas by which we can make a cute invitation card using this Micia stamp set-Floral invitation. I have stamped on the inside of the card as well. The stamp used on the inside is from Avery Elle. Embellished the inside with a simple banner made out of the Washi Tapes  from the kit. These kind of cards are quick to make and we can easily make a set of invititation cards for kids' birthday, baby shower, etc. with this set.

Here's the second card:-
