Blooming Garden Inspiration | Floral Cards with Elena

Hi dear Spellbinders’ fans! This is Elena Salo. I’m so happy that spring is finally here and we can enjoy the warmth of sun rays the smell of fresh spring flowers. But you can’t take pleasure in Spring fully without new collection “Blooming Garden” from Marisa Job. It’s extremely hard to describe the beauty of all dies in this collection. Every of them is so wonderful and unique! Since I’m addicted to handmade flowers, I plan to work with this release very closely. Today I’d like to show you two cards I made using this collection.

I like that the dies in Blooming Rose set are of different sizes, so you can create big, small and medium flowers.

Love the card! Do you actually have two layers of foam – one above and one under the lace like a sandwich?
Thanks

Sharon E,

Beautiful card. So elegant and easy. You make the flowers look real. Well done.

Brenda Stainton,

thank you, Beth! Yes, it will be coming in stock in the middle of next week :)

Yana Smakula,

Beautiful cards , very elegant too :)

Pooja,

Fantastic collection. Hoping it is only out of stock because it’s new. Flowers and heart box dies are must haves. I also like the 2 sizes of flowers-makes it much more versatile.

Beth Williams,
