Hello friends!
Warning: photo-heavy post
It gives me great pleasure to be part of the Spellbinders Blog Hop.
If you came by the blog of Helen Salo , you are in the stop. If not, come on in and join the hop!
Here are the TWO collections that we are showcasing today:
Elegant 3D Vignettes by Becca Feeken
and
Flower Garden by Sharyn Sowell.
( products are linked for your easy reference/purchase)
For all of my projects, I am showcasing Flower Garden by Sharyn Sowell
collection. You MUST check them out as each one of them is amazing!
My first card features Birds on the Cherry Branch Die.
Isn't this birdie sweet?
I used the negative part of this "Thinking of You" die to create a white overlay on kraft background. I stacked the dies and slightly offset the images to show off the white.

I love that the nest, the bird and leaves are all in one die. As you can see, this die does all the TWEETING/talking! The sweet bird was painted with watercolor.

My 2nd project features the intricate Floral Photo Frame Etched Die!
I die cut two frames and the top panel and that's it! It is SO easy to put together!
I think this is such a GREAT one to use and you can make multiples easily! This cutie pie happens to be my niece's daughter!! 😍

Since the die Dimensional Floral Panel Etched Die is so ornate and detailed, it is perfect for creating a wedding card!
I absolutely love how dreamy this looks!

All your projects are just gorgeous, Virginia. I love how you colored the bird die. The offset stacking really looks good. That frame and your grandniece's picture is darling. The paper you created is positively beautiful. All the dies are so striking. I particularly love the sentiment "You are always in my heart." Could you please tell me the name of the stamp set? Thanks!
