Welcome to our March Blog Waddle! We are featuring cards from the Annual Catalog this month!!
I picked the Pansy Patch bundle (#155674) for my project. It is such a sweet bundle! The card base is Highland Heather with a Basic White layer. The Soft Succulent In-Color DSP (#159254) is cut with the largest retired Seasonal Layers Die adhered to the layer. The pansy and flowers were die cut with the Pansy Dies (#155680) in Gorgeous Grape, Highland Heater, Soft Succlent, Evening Evergreen, Basic White and Daffodil Delight, and then pieced together. The die is hole-punched and a piece of Soft Succulent Ribbon (#155780) is tied with a piece of White Baker’s Twine (#155475). The sentiment from the Pansy Patch stamp set (#154999) was stamped in Highland Heather. Three pearls from the Pastel Pearls (#154571) completed my card!
