TCP New Release: Folk Art Flowers

Day Two at The Cat’s Pajamas' Sneaky Peek Week bring us all sorts of lovelies in flowers!  

This set, called Folk Art Flowers and it’s coordinating dies Folklore Flowers is precious!  I had so much fun playing with it and have way more ideas concocted in my head of how I plan to use it in the future.  For today, I created two flower spreads depicting Spring and Summer.  

First up is Spring!  All those sweet flowers that pop out of the ground are often soft shades, so this card plays up the blues and purples of a spring spread of blooms.  I love the variety of flowers, leaves and stems this set has!  You can get really creative.  

A little framing of the flowers, and the pretty sentiment from the set, finished with some iridescent Snowy Sparkle holeless sequins from the TCP store make it shimmery.  

Next up it’s summer!

I love the pure rich shades of summer, so I captured that in this card design with primary shades of bright reds, yellows and blues. Once I stamped the outside blooms heading where I wanted them, I cut out the center of the open space so that I could pop up that outer layer and add the sentiment from the set underneath.  

A great statement satin bow and more Silver Saucer Holeless sequins give it summer sparkle. 

Here’s a peek at the New Release Items I used today.  

Look at all the awesome images in this set!  And FYI, the stamp set and dies will be sold as a bundle at a discount so that’s a great way to get both!
