Beautiful Petals – Two Ways

Hi Creative Friends,

I have been having the best time creating with the beautiful Four Petal Thank You Floral die set by Spellbinders. There are so many ways you can use this set! I chose to make a floral display that was bursting with colors and flowers. I was having so much fun with this set that I created the same flowers on two different background colors. I rarely create two cards the same, but I couldn’t help myself! You will have to let me know which version you like the best by commenting on our blog or Instagram. For those of you that do play along, you will be entered into a drawing for a $25 gift certificate to our shop – woohoo! Be sure to let us know how to contact you if you are the lucky winner!

Watercolor Wash & Blended Petals

Hi Creative Friends,

Not too long ago I shared a video (you can view it here) featuring three different card designs you could make using the beautiful Blended Petals by Concord & 9th. One of those designs didn’t get its proper due so today is a tribute to this simple but elegant, clean, and simple card design.

Autumn Eucalyptus Bouquet

Hi Creative Friends,

Fall is one of my favorite times of the year. There are so many varied and luscious colors during this season with the turning of the leaves, pumpkins, and the rich, dark colors everywhere you look.  Eucalyptus is one of those things I think of in Autumn too so when the new Eucalyptus Elegance stamp and die set came out I knew I had to make something Autumn-y with it. I combined it with another favorite, Fall Bouquet to create this beautiful bouquet. A video is included so you can follow along with its creation.

A Trio of Bouquets

Hi Creative Friends,

A few weeks ago I shared a sweet bouquet card using the Simply Graphic Bouquets stamp set. Now I am sharing the two others I made at the same time.

I just love this stamp set. The bouquets are simple and understated making them perfect card designs for any occasion. They are wonderful for a set of note cards…just change the sentiment or make simple, yet special greeting cards like these.
