Perfect Plants with Sending Smiles

 I have a number of circumstances where I need to send a

"Love and Big Hugs" (Sending Smiles Set) sentiment.  For this

card, I used the Perfect Plants pot, the flower from the Hippo 

Dies, and the stems from the Sunflower Dies.  I cut out all the

elements in White, and then used Blending Brushes to add

Daffodil Delight, Cajun Craze, Soft Succulent and 

Pool Party (to the Brick and Mortar 3D background).  

I will say that in person, this

card comes across as a bit softer than in the picture.

 I used a marker to round the pot from

the back and then Dimensionals to raise it up.

Finally, I added retired jewels to highlight the pot.

I debated adding a base for the pot, and decided that it

really didn't need anything else.

Heron Habitat with Heron Dies

 The Heron Habitat stamp set, with coordinating Heron dies

comprise the Heron Habitat Bundle.  I love this bundle because it

is so elegant.  The sentiments are perfect for a range of 

adult cards.  In this example, I used some retired DSP to 

accessorize this card.

North Pole Mischief

 I have a number of relatives who are cat lovers (I think that cats are very entertaining, however am allergic).  The North Pole Mischief

set is a great option for creating cards for these friends

and family!
