Flowering Cactus Prickly Card

Isn’t this a great sentiment? “Life can get kind of prickly” With all that we’ve been going through this year I can think of lots of people to send this card to.

I used the Flowering Cactus Medley to make the card. The Designer Series Papers are so pretty. It includes felt embellishments and linen thread to dress up your cards and the stamp set has great sentiments and images.
