Hey Friend

This card makes me SO HAPPY! The colors, the layout. So fun! I can’t wait to send this to a friend. My inspiration for this pretty card came from Mary Fish. She made the super cute card below with the Bloom By Bloom Bundle a few years ago and I couldn’t wait to recreate it.

Thanks So Much

Sometimes inspiration comes from not only other papercrafters, but other products. When I first saw the In Symmetry Stamp Set, I was reminded of the Bloom by Bloom stamp set we had a few years ago. There were several beautiful cards I had seen from the Bloom by Bloom set that I still wanted to make, like this one from Julie Davison! It’s super simple- only 3 layers- and I love it! I used the Sweet Symmetry Designer Series Paper, a little ink and some Just Jade ribbon and that’s it. So fun.
