With the formalities taken care of, here are my projects created with the gorgeous 

First up is a really fresh & contemporary scrapbook page, 

"Absolutely Amazing"


Oh how pretty! So light and fresh! 


Who would've thought that a simple black and white floral could look SO good?!!
Let's take a better look...


Such a fun, fresh & contemporary page! 
You'll spy that I simply stamped a black outline for both the Hawaiian Coral flower and leaves, before using the coordinating metal die for a perfect cut every.single.time! 
I machine stitched a trim of one of the softer patterned papers from the Enjoy The Ride Scrapbook collection to the base of my page. I positioned my darling girl's photo over the center join of this trim, tucked in a few fussy cut & ephemera pieces (also from the Enjoy The Ride collection) & then embellished with those fabulous black & white Hawaiian Coral lovelies!   


So pretty!
 

For finishing touches, I repeat stamped the You are just absolutely amazing sentiment around my photo cluster, and added a sprinkle of the Tropical Forest Enamel Dots. 
Simple, but oh so effective!

My second project is a really sweet card...


Oh, how elegant!



I just love the layered, tonal look you can create with the Build-A-Flower stamps! So good!



Just gorgeous! 
I sure hope my projects have inspired you today!



Thanks so much for visiting!
