Hello there!

My first project features the Build-A-Garden: Happy Blossoms, using only the stencils.

The second project also features the Build-A-Garden: Happy Blossoms. This time I included a bit of line work for interest.

The next project also features the Build-A-Garden: Happy Blossoms. This time, a softer look. I also paired it with the new Glacier Iris Cardstock.

My next project features the stencil and embossing folder combo, Joyful Garden

Altenew Craft-A-Flower: Buttercup Bunch Layering Die Set

The next card features one of the vases from the Earthenware Vases Die Set
I used the Textured Blocks 3D Embossing Folder to add texture. The flowers are from the Morning Grace Die Set.

I really like the simplicity of the next card.

My final card features the Pop-It-Up: Blooming Hydrangea Stamp & Die Set
I used Artist Markers to color the leaves and chose Gem Sparkles for the flower centers.

Sandy Suzuka said...

So many beautiful card examples! My favs are the ones that use the least amount of color-they show off the flower designs so well. Really like the embossed lines on the flowers in the last one. I wish Altenew would sell that stamp set separately from the bundle.

BobbisTreasure said...

Your shading is beautiful! The way you used vellum is a great idea.

Donna Walls said...

Stunning cards, and that's all I can say about that!

Denise Bryant said...
