Beautiful Nichole!

Hi Nicole,
A beautiful, simple but elegant card. Love the way you’ve created the background. I agree, a partial background stamping is a lovely way to set the tone for the focal point. More doesn’t always mean better and your sample just prove it! Favorite from this month release? Difficult to decide … the sentiments from Parrot Paradise stamps set, the Layered Blossom Cover dies, the Pretty Pansies and the Baby Balloon stamp sets … in other words all new products, including the new inks are on my endless wish list. Thank you for sharing your work, for the inspiration, tutorial and for the chance to win a $30 GC.

Beautiful card, pretty colours and lovely floral images.

So pretty!!! That blue is just lovely. Great card!

Really pretty card! Love the blues.

Love your card! Thanks for the inspiration of using just a partial background.

Beautiful card design. Great color choice. Thanks for sharing.

Love how you used the hexagon stamp to “ground” your flowers! And the blue…my favorite color!

Such a lovely card! I love the colors and the subtle background stamping.

Thank you for the tip about partial background stamping to create focal points. I see how it works with the subtle use of Pattern Play Hexagon. You inspire me.

Beautiful cards. I always enjoy your work and you highlighted the Altenew release so well.

Nice color combining and layout. This hop is fantastic.

Everyone did their flowers a different color. Yours are blue and that color is so pretty! I love how you made them look. Your card is so pretty! I can’t believe the hop is done! It took me 3 days to do and this was the longest hop I have ever been on! My little feet and legs are very tired from all that hopping but I learned a lot from each and every person on the hop. I was glad to be a part of this hop even if all I did was hop and not create any cards. Thank you for showing us your pretty card and for giving us the chance to win something. Now I am off to bed!

I love the blue flowers on your card, so pretty!

Beautiful combination!

The partial background stamping is very subtle….great idea. Thanks.

Gorgeous! At a first glance, I thought that this set resembled some of the other sets too much, but I’ve come to realise that these new florals have a bigger size, making them just perfect to serve as a focal point the way you did. Other favourites are the bouquet stamp and the Indoor garden set.
