In November we got an "early release" of a bundle from the upcoming Mini Catalogue, as well as some "limited time only" matching products.
I have had a ball playing with the Fitting Florets Collection. I've event used up almost ALL the designer series paper!! That hardly ever happens! Here are some of the cards I've created with these pretty products. I've actually made heaps of each design, not just the one or two pictured in each photo below.
If you placed an order with my in November you will very likely be receiving one of these cards in the mail shortly :-)
At my November team meeting we all made this pretty card. I love the way the die in the background cuts a peekaboo effect with all those little hearts.
The flower image was cut from the designer paper using the matching dies.
The floral focal point images were also cut from the Designer Series paper, but this time BY HAND! Yes, I fussy cut all those fiddly flowers and leaves - but it was worth it, I think they look great! I then used more of the Designer Series paper as the background. I like to feature both sides so I chop a bit off the bottom and flip it over so you can see both patterns on the one card.
The oval frame dies are my favourite thing about this collection. Actually, maybe the gold swirl embellishments are my favourites....
I had cut out soooo many flower images that I ran out of the rest of the designer paper to go on the fronts of cards! I just had little strips left. So I made this single page note cards. I love how they turned out. Super hand for writing a quick note when you don't want to send a full card.
I even made some Christmas cards with the coordinating Christmas stamp set but I'll save those photos for the next blog post!
