July Blog Hop Inspiration

Check out this gorgeous piece of inspiration I stumbled upon while on Pinterest!  As soon as I saw it, I knew it would make a perfect blog hop!  Here are just a few things that I found inspiring:

  • The patterns and colors in the banner.  A simple banner like this and a sentiment on a crisp white card would be amazing!
  • The gingham envelope with the stitched flap and floral button.  Could easily be recreated with a mini envelope die or for an overall A2 card front.
  • The vintage button cards could be re-created using Button Boutique, paired up with some of the colors and patterns from the other fabrics included in the photo.
  • The dainty embroidered flowers and possibly a sentiment added with Stitched Alphabet.
  • The sweet bouquet of flowers paired with a doily could be interpreted in a million different ways, with dies or stamps!
  • The slightly shabby background could be recreated by swiping ink or paint onto your cardstock, allowing to dry and using a sanding block to remove some of it.
  • That sweet bird!  Use your favorite bird stamps or dies to re-create the patterns and colors used on this one.

I am sure that many of you will come up with even more ideas!  We look forward to seeing all of your creations!
