Hi EVERYONE! It is Iliana, and I get to kick off MISTI May-nia. There are two of us posting today so that means there are two chances to win a Mini MISTI.
Today's card is using Taylored Expressions Zinnia stamp set.
The bottom layer was a piece of patterned 6 x 6 paper from my stash. I used stitched rectangles from Lawn Fawn for my layers.
