Pop of Spring with Fern and Flora

It seems like the trees and grasses have just popped over the last week or so. A little sun, a bunch of rain and warmer temps have that amazing effect of turning dried out left-over winter blahs into spring colour. This card filled with lush greenery reminds me of the beauty of this time of year. Thanks to Dawn for sharing today's card featuring the Fern and Flora bundle with us in our May swap.

Stamp Set or Patterned Paper?

Let's play, "which stamp is this?". Any guesses? I'll let you in on a secret - the flowers in the planter are from the Artisan Sketched Garden pattern paper and hand cut out. This is divine! I love all the black and white with a splash of colour from Poppy Parade on the flowers and the oh so cute ladybug embellishment. Adding this paper pack to my cart now. What about you?

Let's Celebrate with Balloon Festoon

Balloon Festoon - what a fun name for this stamp set and die bundle! Love how Desiree Simpson - one of my Silver Sisters - embossed the balloon die cut with a coordinating daisy print. This is a totally duplicatable layout with your favourite products. For reference cut your strips between a half inch and three-quarters of an inch for great coverage on the front layer. I think I'll be CASE-ing this one! Thanks, Des.

Adding layers really steps up your card

Way to add layers to a card with a clean colour palate of the new Hydrangea Hue and white with a little hint of Peaceful Pine in the patterned paper. I count 6 layers including the cardbase which was over the top for our recent swap criteria! This really demonstrates how just two colours - Basic White and Hydrangea Hue - adding varied textures and layers packs a lot into one project. Enjoy!

Using Everyday Arches for layering on a card

Sometimes it's the patterned paper that makes the card! So it is with this delicate colour combination from the Velvet Meadow 12 inch x 12 inch pack. Today's card was designed by Genevieve Ko and I love how the layers are highlighted using the Everyday Arches dies instead of a rectangle. Thanks, Gen for this pretty card.
