Today’s card is perfect for spring and reminds me of my mother who always looked forward to those first flowers popping up in the spring.
This card uses my Card Sketch #2 making it a great way to create quick and simple cards like this one that highlight our Designer Series Paper. I simply did this card in landscape rather than the portrait version.
Here is a quick video tutorial showing you how I created the card and PDF for both the card and Card Sketch.
It’s that time of the year when the Hydrangeas bloom. They were a favorite of my mother-in-laws and she always had a bush in her yard. I loved the fact they would have different color blooms based on the soil. She was always trying to get those lovely shades of blue in her yard.
So today’s card makes me think of her. While she has been gone many years now I still think of her love for these flowering bushes when I see them as I pass by on a drive or walk past them in the store.
Do you recognize the punch? It is our To the Point Label Punch (164568) that has been cut in half and tipped on it’s side. Kind of looks like a pot, don’t you think?
And of course for a bit more shimmer the Antique Pearls (164679) have been used. If you haven’t seen the Basic Beige 3/8″Classic Ribbon (165216) it is a great ribbon to have on hand. Not only is it great all by itself and ties beautifully like here on this card, it is light enough to color too, giving you lots of options.
