From Small Beginnings – MFT Stamps

One more day until the new release goes live! I was a little hesitant when I started making today’s inspiration. I didn’t know if the vision is my head would play out and look cohesive in the end. I think there are a couple tweaks I might make, but overall I am happy with the concept and color of my card. What do you think? I’m always trying to do new things and mix old products with new products. I get bored if I’m not experimenting 🙂
