Stamp the tropical birds and color them with Prismacolor Pencils and blend them with Odorless Mineral Spirits. Die cut them using their matching die. Stamp the plumeria flowers and greenery on white cardstock and die cut them Add color to the leaves using the Forest Moss and Peeled Paint distress inks.
