You Are Capable of Amazing Things – Tina Newberry Designs

Hydrangeas are one of my favorite flowers! I had one little bush at our house in New Hampshire. It made me happy to look at it each on my way in and out of the house each day. The Periwinkle blue are my favorite color, but this Rococo Rose version created from the Designer Series Paper in the Hydrangea Hill Product Suite is quite pretty too. I love the big Hydrangea Die! Sadly the Nested Labels Dies are retiring, as well as the Subtle Embossing Folder, so I was happy to put them to work on this pretty card, along with the Lovely Labels Pick a Punch.

Full list of supplies needed, listed below. A die cutting machine is needed for this card.
