I think these colors are so GREAT! Watermelon Wonder and Mint Macaron are both retiring later this year, so make sure you get them before they are gone!

I have a few cards I made using this theme. I hope you enjoy!

I used the Botanical Builder to get that impressive leaf cut on the edge of the paper.

Then, I heat embossed with gold onto my colored cardstock with the Feather Together Stamp set, and fussy-cutted them out.

The feather images on the watermelon cardstock were made using the Watermelon Ink Pad.

This one is pretty straight forward. Very similar to everything I used above, plus the addition of washi tape.

This card is really very simple. Hardly any stamping (except for the gold embossed Thank You from Feather Together Stamp Set). Every else was cut out of my amazing cardstock with the Botanical Builder Framelits Dies.

Say Hello to one of my favorite Sale-a-bration items from Stampin Up! The Dragonfly Dreams Bundle! It's where I got the sentiment, bee stamps and dragonfly dies (love!)

I originally was going to have this frame inset line up symmetrically with the rest of the card, but something shifted on me, and it was tilted. Guess what? I liked it! So, that's how I glued it down!

The background pattern was stamped with the Penned and Painted Stamp Set. The Thank You is from Wetlands Stamp Set and the dies are from Botanical Builders.

Here's the complete list of the products I used, and links to my online store.
