Welcome back and today I have a lovely all occasion card that is positively smothered in lilacs. I think this collection must be my all time favourite and I can’t get enough of the soft hues and the gorgeous papers. The flowers are so easy to make. Here I have used a Becca Feeken die – the Grand Cabinet die and the cottage fitted inside this die so perfectly. I have die cut three of the dies to add dimension. I love adding the little birds from the Woodsy Wonderland collection as well. They add life to the card.
I hope that I have inspired you to do something different with the lilacs.

Welcome back. Today I have a triple easel wedding card. I had just sold a card on Trade Me and the one I had in the shop was not something I could send out.! So I made another one using Lush Lilacs and Classic Roses and a different embossing folder to the previous ones I had done before. Here is the link to my previous post and there is a link for instructions on how to make this card. They are a lot easier than they look as it is just three different easel cards joined together. Next time I will be placing the easels closer together but I was in a rush today.
These are so easy to make and I hope that I have inspired you to try one for yourself.
