These three cards were created fairly quickly. Once I decided on the design, I simply made three of everything for the card base, die-cut corner panel with copper card stock backing, and stamped thank you. I used a complete stamp set to stamp in permanent black ink and then watercoloured the blooms and leaves with zigs. The matching dies make it quick and easy to cut them out.
Here's a close-up of all three ...
