Sharing a project today, How to make a cactus themed greeting card. Using the Brutus Monroe stamp set Sharp Stuff<\/a>,\u00a0Brutus Monroe Detail Ink – Raven<\/a>, Chameleon Pens<\/a>, and Tattered Angels Glimmer Mists.<\/p>\n

\"How<\/a><\/p>\n

What I love about this stamp set<\/a> is how easy it is to make different looks with the same stamps. There are so many options with this set, you are only limited by your imagination.<\/p>\n

For this card, I stamped out the Sharp Stuff<\/a> images on a piece of white cardstock. Colored the images with\u00a0Chameleon Pens<\/a>\u00a0and then cut out each image.<\/p>\n

The background was made using Tattered Angels Glimmer mists to give a really pretty green hue.<\/p>\n

Once I had all the images ready to use I made an arrangement on the card and started adhering. I even used pop dots to add dimension.<\/p>\n

When the pots of cactus\u00a0were added to the card I then went back and made some shadows around the base of the pots. This helps anchor these to the card so they don’t look like they are floating in the air.<\/p>\n
