Being Awesome is Just Your Thing

We are supposed to see snow today in Atlanta – it’s a rare event, so I wanted to memorialize the day with a bright, cheery, flowery project. Designer Series Paper is a great place to start when I am making a card. The Flowering Fields Design Series Papers are filled with brilliant colors and beautiful patterns, which gave me a great platform to build the card I’m sharing with you today. Here’s my simple, but beautiful, card:

This card started with the Flowering Fields Designer Series Paper – this gorgeous filed of tulips needed to be showcased, and it worked perfectly with the Poppy Parade panel with white dots. I knew I’d pair them together for a sweet card. Here’s a look at the colors and patterns in the Flowering Fields Designer Series Paper:

The sentiment on this card says it all – “being awesome is just your thing.” I love it! It’s pulled from the Happy & Heartfelt stamp set (found on page 51 of the January – June 2022 Mini Catalog), which deserves a quick look. I love the handwritten sentiments in this set – not only is the font amazing, but the variety of sentiments is out-of-this-world. Here’s a look at this must-stamp set:

I added three wraps of the Poppy Parade and white baker’s twine from the Fan Baker’s Twine before adding the super-fun sentiment to this cardfront – such an easy way to add texture to a simple card.

Here’s a closer look at the sentiment, backed with the papers and coordinating twine:
