Wow! That's quite a talented list of creatives! You'll be so inspired by all their amazing projects! 

Speaking of inspiration, time to share my two projects with you...

"Oh Happy Day" 8.5" x 11" scrapbook layout


Oh happy day, indeed! The Craft-A-Flower: Cistus Layering Die Set was perfect for documenting my daughter's recent birthday celebrations with!

Altenew Supplies: Craft-A-Flower: Cistus Layering Die Set , Essential Sentiment Strips Die Set, Cherry Blossom Enamel Dots, Delicate Dots Washi Tape & Enjoy The Ride Chipboard Alphas.

Let's take a closer look...


There's no denying that the Craft-A-Flower: Cistus Layering Die Set is an absolute show-stopper! 
Wow! 
Layered in soft purple tones, the Cistus blooms are light and joyful and perfect for my sweet photo! Such a fresh and contemporary floral!


SO pretty!


As well as that stunning Craft-A-Flower: Cistus floral cluster, you'll also spy the lovely Essential Sentiment Strips Die Set, Cherry Blossom Enamel Dots, Delicate Dots Washi Tape & Enjoy The Ride Chipboard Alphas on my page. The Delicate Dots Washi Tape really enhances that clean and contemporary feel! 


So beautiful! 

For my second project, I've created a sweet thankyou card that features both the Craft-A-Flower: Cistus Layering Die Set  & two of the new Gradient Cardstock Sets...

"So Grateful" Thankyou Card 


Oh how lovely! And such a different look with the Craft-A-Flower: Cistus flowers! 
The Red Sunset Gradient Cardstock really evokes those warm, & tropical vibes! Love it!
