Welcome to another Be Inspired Blog Hop! 🤎 This mo Welcome to another Be Inspired Blog Hop! 🤎
This month, our theme is Die-Cutting, and I decided to highlight trees in my card design.

For my card base, I used Basic Gray, and I sponged the first layer with Blueberry Bushel to create depth and a lovely background for the colourful trees.
 I watercoloured the cardstock before die cutting. I love how this adds a unique touch and brings variation to each tree in colours.

Hello lovely crafty friends, It’s time for anothe Hello lovely crafty friends,

It’s time for another Hop Abroad Insta Hop! 
This month our theme is Fall / Thank You Cards, and for my card I wanted to play with warm colours, lots of layers and a little bit of texture.
I really enjoy making cards like this, where you can keep looking and notice all the little details. I added the embossed background, foliage, ribbon and a few embellishments to give the card some dimension.
