Here's some inspiration!

Several of our Design Team Members decided to play along - Remember the colors are just an inspiration - check out all the ways they used them! Read the description below each card to see who made it!

I love the pretty floral card by Lydia! She stamped the flowers from our Fanciful Florals stamp set in the coral, peach, and mint inks and added in the words from the Simply Sentimental stamp set!

Here's some fun inspiration from Samantha! I love how she used the colors to create a fun background and then added black and white roses using the Love Grows stamp set. 

  This card by Yuki also uses the bold flowers from our Fanciful Florals stamp set in the coral with minty colored leaves! I love the added sparkle with the silver letters too! She also used the "for everything" words from the Simply Sentimental stamp set!

Here's an adorable one layer card by Danielle! She used our Flirty Flamingos stamp set, coloring flamingos in shades of coral on a minty background! 

This lovely card by Jess uses our blooms from our Fanciful Florals stamp set in a fun bright bold design! 

This lovely card by Larissa uses our our lovely Beautiful Blossoms stamp set. Love all those pretty layers!

And here's one more card using Fanciful Florals by me - I tried to do color fade from the coral to the mint.  I'm not the best with color blending yet but I think it turned out ok - sort of a "dip died" type of look.

Nina-Marie turned the sketch sideways and made it into a cute birthday shaker card! So Adorable! She used the Newton's Antics stamp set for the kitty image.
