Lavender Gate Fold

Here's a card I made for the Hope You Can Cling To card drive at Splitcoaststampers last month - this is a gatefold card using the Lavender Papercraft Kit. This kit coordinates with Spellbinders dies, and they're so easy to line up - I don't have the scalloped ovals, but the classic ovals work just as well. I used Lilac Flower Soft on the focal panel, and the sentiment comes from Impression Obsession.

Thanks for looking!

Another square card.....

The current Sprinkle Challenge over at Flower Soft's Splitcoaststampers forum is to use Flower Soft on our square cards... here's a simple little square card I made using some stamps from Sweet 'n Sassy Stamps. I fluffed up Timothy's bouquet with a popped flower and some Lilac and Lemon Flower Soft. Isn't he sweet and Spring-y? :)

Are you ready for a blog hop tomorrow?!!

Country Village

The Country Village Toppers feature beautiful artwork and are so fun to embellish! Here's a simple card I made from the Cottages kit. I cut out the foreground panel first, then layered the two panels together to die cut them (I used Spellbinders Labels 8). Next I embossed and debossed with a large ball stencil, cut out the door area, and used a glitter pen on the windows. I used Flower Soft on several of the floral areas - to the vines on the roof I added Ultrafine Sage and Raspberry Fizz. There is Lilac Flower Soft on the potted flowers, Polar White on the plant by the open door, and I mixed Polar White and Ultrafine Ocean for the plant in the foreground.Here are some close-ups of different areas of the card, so you can see the dimension!
Thanks for stopping by!

Just for You at Flower Soft and Sneak Peek at New Digi Papers!!

A very Happy Sunday to YOU!!

For my card today I used Bazzill for the base, all matting is SU, and the darling image Just for You was stamped on Cryogen White and colored with Copics to match the new, lovely digi papers which will be available from Flower Soft very soon!! I added a touch of Gold Stickles to the lace, Lilac, Lavender, Citrus Crush and Raspberry Fizz for all the flowers, and a mixture of Shamrock Green and Pale Green to highlight the grass. The image was propped up on a MS Quilted Punch Around tthe Page and yellow pearls were added to the junctures as well as to all corners of the card. To add vertical interest, I added a stripe from one of the new digi papers, using small lavender bows and yellow organza butterflies. To finish the front I added floral treatments using yellow pleated flowers by Maya Road.

I hope you have enjoyed my creation and will join us everyday as our Design Team Members will have some very lovely and exciting creations to show you...Enjoy your week...Hugs from Jacque
