Floral Boutique Note

I “borrowed” (CASEd in stamping lingo) this color palette from Bruno Bertucci.  I love the combination of Night of Navy with Tip Top Taupe.  It could go very masculine, but my little scallop oval kind of makes it a bit more feminine.   Floral Boutique Designer Series Paper is the…
