Paradise Garden Lovely Day

Garden Poetry Suite

Today I am contributing to the Ink & Inspiration February Sketch Challenge Blog Hop. I chose the Garden Poetry Suite that will go live to custometrs on March 3rd. The links for those products are not live yet, so I will include the item #'s at the end of this post.

Paradise Garden Collection

I am madly in love with the Paradise Garden Hybrid Embossing Folder, which I've used as the card front. The DSP in the collection is so pretty, with loads of beautiful colors to choose from. This blue reminded me of a vase that my grandmother had, so I designed the entire card around memory.
