Every Happiness Blog Hop

Hi there! Today I’m joining Simon Says Stamp for their Every Happiness Release Blog Hop.

SSS-Chunky Ovals, Sunflower Meadow, Wishflower Stem, Tissue Petal Stems, Butterbloom Flowers, Sunflower Blooms

I have created three clean & simple floral cards using some new floral dies from the release.
The cards below use the Sunflower Blooms, Wishflower Stem, Butterbloom Flowers & Tissue Petal Stems die sets.

SSS-Chunky Ovals, Sunflower Meadow, Wishflower Stem, Tissue Petal Stems, Butterbloom Flowers

I used the Chunky Ovals dies to create frames for each card. I also used sentiments from both of the Forest Forage in Summer & Sunflower Meadow stamp sets.

Here is a video showing how I created these cards.

      I’ve seen these cards everywhere the last couple of days, and something told me they were yours. ‘Scuse me, gotta go find those dies. 🤣

    Three stunning cards each one featuring three beautiful & colorful flowers, I LOVE all three. The oval shaped card, the oval mat and the oval focal image were each one different from the other two but they are each one gorgeous, as was that oversized boy under your table, how sweet that he wants to be close to mom and the AC vent 🙂 Hank & Frank are lucky guys to be part of a big loving family, thanks for sharing them as well as a little singing. When I watch your videos I know I’m going to see great cards, be entertained and learn something all at the same time, You and your cards rock Laura !!!
