I chose cards that I especially love and that represent four different types of techniques!

I made this card for the Craft-a-Flower Peruvian Lily hop. It features using washi tape, 3D embossing, and gold ink for embellishment. Click HERE for the complete how-to’s!!!

The second card I am sharing was a part of the Washi Tape Blog Hop, and features one of my very favorite techniques — using 3D Embossing Folders with washi. It is so easy and so quick, but SO impressive!
Check out my YouTube Tutorial for a complete walkthrough of this process!

For my 3rd card, I chose my entry for the Build-a-Flower Laelia Blog Hop. I chose the colors to replicate a photo I found of a Laelia, and I just love the way it turned out!

My final card was a part of the Build-a-Flower Tree Peony Blog Hop. I mixed the peony with the Hill Blossoms coloring stencil and the organic linen 3D Embossing folder.
I love these soft colors and the “I Care” sentiment on this card. Click HERE for the complete details!!!
