Hello friends!

It’s time for a fresh new colour challenge over at Hand Stamped Sentiments, and this one has me dreaming of tropical blooms and sunny skies! For HSS Challenge #463, we’re playing with a gorgeous palette of Fresh Freesia, Summer Splash, and Soft Sea Foam — and I couldn’t resist pulling out the Happy Hibiscus Bundle for this one. 💜💦💚

Here’s my design for the challenge:

I started with a bold Summer Splash card base to make those florals pop, then added a panel of white cardstock cut with the Textured Notes Dies for that subtle stitched border. The hibiscus flowers are stamped in Fresh Freesia and layered with coordinating die cuts for added dimension.

I used Soft Sea Foam for the die-cut leaves — they give the card a nice balance without overpowering the blooms. And how sweet are those little white accent flowers with Holographic Resin Dots for some sparkle? They’re the perfect finishing touch!

This card came together so easily thanks to the Happy Hibiscus stamp set and dies — it’s quickly becoming one of my favourites for summer crafting. The mix of bold florals and delicate details is just right for cards that celebrate life’s special moments.
