Lovely Garden Suite | Stamp, Scrap & Create with Me

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.

Today’s card uses the Thankful Garden Bundle (Online Exclusive 165534) that includes this hydrangea image and

it is part of the Lovely Garden Suite (Online Exclusive 165541).

The lovely Hydrangea is colored with our Stampin’ Blends and then the Wink of Stella Glitter Brush (141897) has been used to add some shimmer.

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.
