Suite Showcase #5 - Fancy Flora

Hello,

Thank you for taking your time to pop in and have a look at the first Suite Showcase of March. This month sees us starting off by showing you the Fancy Flora suite by Stampin’ Up! When I saw this suite in the January to April mini catalogue I instantly fell in love with it for so many reasons, but mostly because I love the big die in the Two Tone Flora die set.

For my first card I created a die-cut blank and then I couldn’t resist using inks and blending brushes to add colour, especially when you open up the card and all the colour has created a stencil effect.

Card two was created by using a die-cut topper and adhering to the Evening Evergreen base to make the stencil effect pop. This just needed some flowers and leaves along with a greeting and my forever go to linen thread for a bow. Once I added some Iridescent Pastel Gems on the card I was finished.

As always, card three had to be a six-inch square card and I decided to cut a window out of the base and the Fancy Flora Designer Series Paper and insert a die-cut piece of card to show the beautiful detail. I anted to add a bit of the Pool Party Grosgrain ribbon for effect with the two-step stamped flowers and more of the Iridescent Pastel Gems. I didn’t want the greeting as it was, so I stamped it twice next to each other and I got lucky on the first time.

To be honest I was struggling with a bit of crafters block when I was making these cards, not sure if it was because I wanted to do so much with the suite or this silly cold that I have but hopefully I will get to create some more projects using this suite soon.

Well thank you again for looking at my projects and why not pop over to see what Joanna of Purrfectly Creative has made with this suite and I look forward to seeing you again when we publish the next Suite Showcase on the 21^st March.
