Hi, Renee here today to share a trio of Hello Spring cards using the Tealightful collection. Is it spring yet? Ha! Has all the snow disappeared for good bringing us green grass and warm sunshiny days? I hope you have a chance to enjoy spring in all it’s beauty. Now that we’re coming out of hibernation 😉 why not send warm and happy “Hello” greetings to family and friends along with wishes for a happy spring.
I started my Hello Spring cards by trimming neutral Cardstock to 5″ x 10″. I scored and folded the cards in half to make 5″ x 5″ cards.
- I trimmed the Fresh Picked, Meadow, and the Floral Patchwork pattern papers to 1″ x 4 ¾” strips.
- I lined up the strips of papers into a square and marked where the inner corners of the papers met.
- I then cut from the inner corner mark to the outer corner of the pattern paper strips. They form a great little frame when placed back together.
- I arranged the pattern paper frames and machine stitched them to the cards.
I really like how the machine stitching looks on the pattern paper frame pieces.
I added simply sweet embellishments to each card. For this card, I adhered a bee and beehive Transparent Stickers directly to the card. Even with the Textured Cardstock, the Transparent Stickers adhered perfectly. I added flower Puffy Stickers and “hello” Word Stickers to each card.
Love how the basket of wildflowers Transparent Sticker looks with the Floral Patchwork on this card!
I added an adorable snail Transparent Sticker to coordinate with the Fresh Picked pattern paper used for the frame on this card.
