Welcome to the March Pals Blog Hop where we are celebrating spring. This month we are featuring spring related projects for Mother’s Day, Easter or any other occasion that celebrates winter coming to an end.
You may just be starting the blog hop or may have come from Natalie Bradley at Soiree by Natalie Bradley on the Pals Hop. If you get off track at any time, the full lineup below will help you move along from blog to blog so you see all of the amazing creations.
When I think of Spring I think of flowers. So I wanted to create a beautiful trellis with a flowering vine climbing it.
To ensure it was clear I was creating a trellis, I made my card taller. The base of the card is 6" x 3 1/2". Then I added a layer of Very Vanilla 1/4" smaller around. I created the trellis with the Striped Scallop Thinly. I simply cut off part of the trellis and stacked it on top of each other. Then I punched out a lot of sprigs of greenery (Old Olive and Wild Wasabi card stock) using the bird punch. The smaller flowers are stamped in Calypso Coral on Calypso Coral card stock using the Petite Petals stamp set and punched out with the coordinating Petite Petals punch. The larger flower is from the Petals Potpourri stamps set and coordinating Flower Medallion Punch. I stamped the larger flower in Versamark and embossed it with Clear Embossing powder. I finished the flowers with Pearls and scattered a few along the trellis.
The next stop is Debbie Crowley at expressively deb on the Pals Blog Hop! Thanks for visiting and I hope to see you next month.
