Just for you

 Once again I only managed to get head on pics of my first card, and it has already been mailed. But I did add a bit of dimension with foam adhesive tape, to some of the ephemera in this paper pack.


  • Studio Light - DIY Block Vintage Roses paper pack. Papers and ephemera
  • Diamond Press - Heart Gem


I would like to share this card with Love those pretty papers challenge.

The next card is one I sent to one of the older ladies in our congregation that is home bound. I am sure like us all she is dreaming of spring.  I haven't used these stamps before.  The bird stamp is solid and the actual bird is clear, I stamped onto pattern paper so the bird would have some kind of pattern to it, and fussy cut it out, as well as the umbrella, and the two sentiment tag, the dream was also stamped onto pattern paper and punched the circle out.


  • Autumn Leaves - Wellies n Brellas stamp set (fussy cutting)
  •  Martha Stewart - Circle punch (dream stamp)
  • Spellbinders - Lattice Rectangle die

 


 

 Thanks so much for taking the time to stop by today,

Connie

Both cards are lovely, Connie. I am in love with the Spring card with the bird, umbrella 🌂 and the Gingham background.

I especially love the rose card. It's gorgeous. And the bird card is cute. It's got a great spring feel to it.

Pretty and thoughtful cards! Love the blue rose and the sweet Spring one too--can't get here fast enough! We're finally down to patches of snow, they're still large patches but we can see lots of (brown) grass--that's progress lol And the girls were sledding in 65 degree temps yesterday lol So weird!

It's amazing how beautifully you always put together the paper and ephemera cards! I realize they're made to go together, but your finished product is exceptional. I love your spotted bird on card #2 with the umbrella and pretty frame. Spring rains will soon bring pretty flowers!
