LUCKY ME FLORAL CARDS | with Karen

So, up here in Calgary, we have been having a really mild winter. In fact, it has been so mild that recently plants started emerging from their winter sleep - that is unheard of in February up here. But, as is with life, winter struck again and we are living in a deep freeze...our little plants hiding beneath the snow (don't worry - they will be okay...even the plants up here are a hardy bunch). The great part about crafting is that I don't have to rely on Mother Nature for beautiful blooms any time of the year. Get out some beautiful Doodlebug paper from the new Lucky Me collection and some Rainbow Textured cardstock, and I can put the winter blues behind me!

    

So that is is exactly what I did for this set of cards! Featuring die cuts from the Doodle Cuts Bunch of Luck, I used the Rainbow Textured cardstock to cut out each of these beautiful blooms.

   

I then added some patterned paper from the Lucky Me 6x8 paper pad as a base on top of some of the card bases from Rainbow Cards & Envelopes set. I just love the beautifully coloured envelopes that come in this pack.

 

I layered up each of the flowers, using regular liquid adhesive for the ones in the back and some foam adhesive for the ones in the front to add a bit more dimension. Finally, I added a little sentiment to each one that I fussy cut from the 6x8 paper pad and I was all set.

   

 Now my kitchen table is covered with beautiful blooms and Doodlebug colour. Spring still can come early! Thanks for stopping by! Hugs,
