MY CARDS:

I had lots of fun playing with some of the products from this release! My first card showcases the Leaf Spin embossing folder. I embossed the image onto dark card stock and used white pigment ink to highlight the leaves. A bit of twine and a heart-shaped sentiment finish it off.

Up next is the Scattered Leaves stencil set. This set comes with two stencils. I also used some silver metallic card stock for a matte and the sentiments.

Ready for a cute one? this stamp set is so adorable! It's called Bunny Bonanza. I colored the images with Copics, and because I didn't have the matching die set, I fussy cut them out before adhering them onto an embossed, blended panel.

For my last card, I used the Wildflower Bucket die set. Wow, does this set ever make an impact! I loved shading the bucket and each of the floral and leaf pieces, then putting it all together! So fun!

That's it for me. I hope I've given you a bit of inspiration for using some of the products from this fabulous release! Thank you so much for stopping by! Don't forget day two of the hop is tomorrow, starting on Simon's blog.

Enjoy the rest of the hop!
