Special Day Tropical Card

Today I am sharing my Special Day Tropical Card featuring Heartfelt Creations Tropical Paradise Collection.

The flowers were shaped using the HCST401 Deluxe Flower Shaping Kit and assembled using a hot glue gun.  Mix the Go Man Go Prills and Hot Mama Prills together for the center of the flowers.
