FSJ August Bloom Box - Backyard Blooms

There's nothing to not love about the August Bloom Box!  Have you seen it?  Because if you have, we know you love it as much as we do. This month we have a sweet summery and floral stamp set that is perfect to use for so many different types of cards -- birthday, thank you & more.  And this color palette?  It's PERFECT for summer and it's just so beautifully coordinated.  Do you have anyone in mind you would send these cards to? FSJ Thanks A Bunch Card Do you need a thank you card for anyone you know?  Need to send a note for a gift received or a kind act?  This Thanks A Bunch card would be perfect don't you think?  A simple bunch of stamping, some foam squares to add dimension and repeated stamping make this card so pretty and fun! FSJ Sending Love Card Wouldn't this one be perfect for so many occasions?  What's your favorite part? We love not only the watercolor painting on the card but also the background stamping too!  The watercoloring is achieved by using the Journey Color Splash Pencils -- using one of our most favorite techniques -- using a Journey Blending Brush to pull color directly off of the pencils. Then, you can add that color and use it to paint. That is exactly what we love about these pencils, their versatility! FSJ Sending Love Card 2 Now, that Baby Envelope!  That's just one of our favorite products in the new catalog and we know you guys love it too.  Isn't so fun on this card?  Add a little washi included in the kit, of course!] and heat embossing and it's just such a fun accent and embellishment. FSJ Feel Better Card Now this one?  We're kind of partial to this one.  Don't you just the painting with Liquid Color technique?  Well, we definitely do! And this card was perfect for this technique -- it's watercolor-y and just so beautiful, don't you think? Love that combined with the black and white contrast and we're pretty sure you will, too!
