Mayra’s Tropical Build-A-Greenhouse Mother’s Day Card

Mayra added a gorgeous tropical spin to the Build-A-Greenhouse to create this amazing Mother’s Day card!

Mayra combined tropical Lawn Cuts sets, Tropical Leaves, Tropical Leaves Backdrop, Magic Iris Tropical Leaves Add-On and Happy Hibiscus to create this amazing design! She inked the die-cut pieces with Lawn Fawn ink in Jalapeño, Clover, Peachy Keen, Apricot and Wild Rose. She also used Distress Inks in Mustard Seed, Spiced Marmalade, Saltwater Taffy, Worn Lipstick and Picked Raspberry.

For the background, she layered a Quilted Backdrop on a Scalloped Rectangle. Then she added the arch from Secret Garden Window before layering on the Build-A-Greenhouse and tropical plants!

Mayra added the beautiful Happy Hibiscus and more Tropical Leaves around the greenhouse before adding the Mother’s Day greeting from Kanga-rrific. She stamped and white embossed the sentiment on a vellum banner.

I love your amazing tropical design, Mayra! Thank you so much for sharing your creativity!

Grace is back with another brilliant paper crafting project! She created box card Tote Bags for Spring occasions using Henry’s Build-A-Sentiment: Spring. She filled the altered Tote Bags with flowers including our new Lovely Lily of the Valley.

Grace created a larger Tote Bag by altering the Shadow Box Card as the base before adding the tote bag pieces to each side. See the directions below for the easy alterations. She used Rainbow Ever After in Rapunzel, Alice and Jack to match the pastel colors of the flower bouquets!

Then Grace personalized each box with a greeting from Henry’s Build-A-Sentiment: Spring! She white embossed the sentiment on a vellum Extra Sentiment Banner, then she layered it on a label from Platform Pop-Up Picket Fence Wrap Around.

Crafting the Flowers

Here’s a great breakdown of how Grace assembled each of the flowers. The ink colors named are Lawn Fawn inks that are in the supply list below. To make the daisy flower she combined Reveal Wheel Circle Add-On Frames: Flower and Sun with a stem and leaf from Darling Daffodils.

Creating the altered box

Grace altered the Shadow Box Card by cutting 1/2″ off the top of each piece. And she added the hillside inserts higher in box, more toward the middle. You will use the inserts for attaching the flowers. She also cut off the handle panel of the Tote Bag, then trimmed 1/8″ off each side. She finished the altered box by attaching the panels to front and back of the Shadow Box.

How pretty are these boxes filled with Spring flowers? They are so perfect for happy Spring celebrations! Or make up a bunch of them and decorate your home with flowers that won’t fade!

Thank you so much for sharing this beautiful and creative project, Grace!

Karin’s Gorgeous Wedding Card

March Inspiration Week is almost here! The Big Giveaway kicks off all the fun on March 23rd and then we will share awesome Design Team inspiration and intro videos as we continue to highlight our Spring 2022 Release. Of course, there will be daily giveaways too! See you then!

Karin is back to inspire us with another gorgeous card design! This time she created a card perfect for a wedding or anniversary!

Karin did some creative partial die-cutting to shorten the Scalloped Slimline with Hearts: Portrait into a mini slimline size. Then she decorated each heart window with a beautifully inked Happy Hibiscus flower! The red color pops against the blue inking behind the heart!

She added a shiny Scripty Love, then combined it with her sentiment. She got really creative and stamped the sentiment on a cutout from the smallest Slide on Over die!

Thank you so much for sharing this gorgeous card, Karin! You shared so many clever ideas!
