Essentials by Ellen Thistle Stamp Set

This is an older set that was on my wish list for quite some time. Even though they’re prickly, thistles are such friendly flowers.

When I purchased the set I thought it was a layering set. However, there is only one single layering image, the base of the large thistle. But, that didn’t stop me!

I wanted to layer pink and purple inks, so I layered the inks on each individual silhouette stamp.
