We'll be making this card at my May Monthly Card Class - both in person and kit-to-go options. The Toadstools are so perfect for this time of year and the greetings from Banner Greetings are ideal for any age. I decided to add a small embossed layer with the ladybug picnic folder which I added ink to with a blending brush for added interest. This class features easy to make up cards for beginner to seasoned card makers. Check out the kit to go option

Nature's Symphony
Each month I do a four card tutorial for my team members - hey, membership has its privileges! This is one of the cards for May's tutorial and really is understated with the Nature's Symphony bundle. Doing the die cuts in various neutral shades brings out the Secret Sea colours around it. A perfect card for all occasions!

Hello Sunshine!
Sending Thinking of you card is a lovely way to stay in touch with family, friends, and customers if you have a business. I send out about 300 a year so I'm always making multiples to spread the joy. This one came together quickly with some linen thread as another layer between the stamped leaves and the greeting. Nice neutral colours for anyone and any occasion. Enjoy!

Paradise Garden Simple and Elegant Card
Making simple cards isn't always a thing we do...often it's bigger - better - more! So it was nice to step back and make more of a clean and simple card. On the white layer, I placed a few little score lines for attention and where they meet I covered with this flower from the Paradise Garden bundle stamped in Poppy Parade. The greeting and the die for it are also from the same bundle. Then I sprinkled 3 Iridescent Pearls that were coloured with Blueberry Bushel Stampin' Blends to tie it all together with the matte and the card base. Sweet and uncomplicated! What do you think?

Wagon Wheel Treat Holders
These Wagon Wheels treat holders will be a hit with the Elmira Community Living class this week. They always love a treat at the end of their crafting session. These came together super easily: Cardstock cut at 8.5 inch x 8.5 inch then cut on a diagonal. With the wide edge horizontal on the score board, score at 4 inches and 8 inches. Fold in each side to seal. That's it! I used cardstock but this would work just as easily with patterned paper. Super cute!
