So we admit, Pretty Party isn't just for parties. It's a super cute collection for "MOMS", too! With Mother's Day around the corner, creating something handmade to celebrate the special day is a tradition for many. So, when Roree Rumph shared her "Mother's Day" potted flowers with us, we thought, "What a GREAT gift idea!" Her timing is perfect!
Roree kindly put together a supply list for creating the beautiful blossom display...
*Pretty Party Paper {Confetti, Party Guest, Papercloth, Spool, Streamers}, Pretty Party Chipboard, Pretty Party Eclectic Buttons, Pretty Party Fabric & Epoxy Brads, Farmhouse Alpha Set, Farmhouse Border Stickers, Farmhouse Eclectic Buttons, Art Minds Simply Surfaces Flower Pots, Embroidery Thread, Craft Sticks, Cricut Expression 2, and Sweet Treats Cartridge.
Sometimes, it's just more fun to create "mini" cards - we think so, at least! They're a quick gift topper, too! Here's what Claudia had to say about them..
"Hello, Hello, Calduia here with a mini card trio featuring chipboard pieces from the Story Teller collection. The little flower pieces are adorable, and I really like the pop of color. I like them so much, that I made them the focal point of the cards. Again, in the light of the Spring Season, these are the perfect as "hello" or "thank-you" cards. For the background, I randomly splattered some water color paint, just enough to create a touch of whimsy."
As you might of already guessed, these two precious layouts are from our white space extraordinaire, Jaime Warren. Both echo heartfelt sentiments using Crate's Pretty Party and Story Teller collections.
A trip overseas to San Francisco has left Sasha Farina with a host of never-forgotten moments. From what we hear, she aspires to return ;) And check out her "stamped airplanes" on Story Teller's quintessential map patterned paper!
