Happiness Blooms Memories and More

Hi everyone,

If you're anything like me, the part of cardmaking you dislike the most is the preparation.  I simply detest cutting card stock for bases and layers.  So, today I'm showing you how to avoid the cutting.

When I saw the Happiness Blooms Memories and More Cards & Envelopes and the Card Pack in the 2019 Occasions Catalogue, I knew I had to order some.  The benefit of purchasing these products is that if you don't want to stamp, or are new to stamping, you don't need to.

I finally got around to making some cards last weekend, so I thought I'd show you the finished cards.  My inspiration came from Kylie Bertucci (craftykylie.com), Katrina Duffell (inkpapergirl.com) and of course the catalogue.

You can make your cards as simple or fancy as you like..it's entirely your choice.  I opted to use some other sentiments and embellishments.  What do you think?  I like the versatility.  It's not clear in the photos, but some of the cards have a glossy finish on the flowers.

My goodness, look at the products I used for some quick and easy cards, that don't require stamping :-)  A few of the products I used are currently available in the Occasions catalogue or as part of Sale-a-Bration.
