I have ordered so many of the gorgeous Heart Foil Tins from page 9 of the January-June 2020 Mini Catalogue.  I have used them for party favours and gift boxes for sweet treats.  Here's one I've created as a wedding favour using the Cherry Blossoms Dies...

This week's Your Creative Connection theme is TO BLING OR NOT TO BLING.  My favourite bling to add to any project is a seemingly-random-but-precisely-placed scattering of sequins, gems, rhinestones, or pearls.  Usually three, sometimes five, but always an odd number.  I also love, love, love ribbon!  Okay, so ribbon is not technically bling but is a lovely additional embellishment that will give life to any project.

Last week I created this coordinating set of thank you cards using the Ornate Garden Suite, which is an early product release from the upcoming 2020-2021 Annual Catalogue.  These eleven cards were created from two half sheets of Ornate Garden Specialty 12" x 12" Designer Series Paper, Terracotta Tile ribbon, plus Terracotta Tile, Blushing Bride, Pear Pizzazz, Crushed Curry, and Whisper White cardstock.

Some more gorgeous-ness using the new Ornate Garden Suite, which is an early product release from the upcoming 2020-2021 Annual Catalogue.  I chose a busy floral design from the Ornate Garden Specialty Designer Series Paper for the card front and then cut through the middle with my sentiment, framed with die-cut vellum borders and embossing...

At the end of January, I shared a Three-Panel Scenery Tri-Fold Card that featured the Parisian Blossoms Specialty Designer Series Paper alongside the beautiful stamped blossoms.  I re-created that card using the same products, but this time I chose a different patterned paper from the pack and used individual die-cut blossoms to grace the card front...

It is ANZAC Day here in New Zealand and in Australia.  ANZAC stands for Australian and New Zealand Army Corps.  Today we remember all who gave their lives for their country and honour our returned servicemen and women.
