Ooh la la! Love the bold shades of Golden Glow and Berry Burst offset by a variety of greens on this one! Use those die cuts in your collection to layer up some goodness. The two squares are 2.5 inches and slightly offset to add depth and perspective. Can never have enough embossed bits. Seriously – this is a 6+ layer card from base to the linen thread. Really makes a statement and ready to brighten up someone’s day.

Spectacular Boutique Bloom card
I was inspired by my Silver Sister, Tamara Bertram’s card for this layout. Over the embossed layer, are 1 inch squares from the sensational Boutique Bloom specialty designer series paper. Finished it off with a die cut, greeting and ribbon for a quick and elegant card. Use any patterned paper and embossing folder to duplicate. Do you like it? Let me know!

Flowers Fair Bouquet
Do you like to colour? Maybe instead, you’d prefer to add colour with a sponge dauber or blending brush onto a stamp? Either way, Wendy’s Team Shoebox Swap card from June 6, is a stunner featuring this gorgeous background stamp called Flowers Fair. We stamped the image in Granny Apple Green ink then coloured in with 4 shades of Stampin’ Blends: Lemon Lolly, Pumpkin Pie, Granny Apple Green and Timid Tiger. Turned out great and really screams, “Bring on Summer!”

Birthday Greetings in Moonlit Flora
Have you played with this patterned paper yet? The Moonlit Flora designer series paper is so luxurious with the new Golden Glow flowers popping right off the page against the various greens. Thanks to Stacey for designing this card for our June shoebox swap. The patterned paper layer is 3” tall by 3 ¾” wide giving you 12 cards from one sheet of 12 x 12 - now that’s a value! With some matching ribbon and a greeting, the card comes together quickly.

Cut your photopolymer stamps apart - I did so with Floral Vignette
Doesn't this look just like patterned paper? Oh friends, it is not! It's not even multiple single stamps because I cannot see me being able to get this great pattern done that way. I cut - yes I said cut - my Floral Vignette stamp out of its frame piece to make the background stamp two stamps. It goes back together easily for those times when I'll want the full image. This gives so many creative choices with the one stamp. Give that a try with your stamps.
