Hey Little Magpie project catch-up – June

Last month over on the Hey Little Magpie blog I got to play with the gorgeous Free Spirit collection by Cocoa Vanilla Studio.

The full details can be found here.

Lots of lush colours and details in this collection including some great ephemera, puffy stickers and cardstock stickers to go with the papers!

So on with the cards…

Here’s one of those puffy stickers in action, really love the brush style font and how the cut-apart journaling paper provides some nice accents and details for cardmaking too.

You can see what a love collection of colours there are in the range – orange, aqua and hot pink are a favourite combo of mine! And I added a touch of bling with gold sequins.

How could I forget to mention the stunning paper flowers also in this collection? The colours are so vibrant! I love the combination of vintage-y doily with puffy stickers and that lovely “Shine Bright” font from the ephemera pack – a perfect colour match for the Kate & Co. enamel dots from My Mind’s Eye I still had in the packet.

Another thing you know I love to use on my cards are frames, lots to choose from in the ephemera pack!

For this card, I cut up lots of scraps into strips to create the background and simply stamped a greeting on one of the labels in the journaling sheet and added a few butterflies and crystals.

Well there was another frame to be used, and I couldn’t resist using the pineapples some how! And the Paper Smooches Cheers die works quite well for a tropical-themed birthday! 😉
