Now that we’ve made all of the formal introductions, let’s get onto the projects!

Ashley Cannon Newell is featuring Corner Adorner: March + Penned Elegance Alphabet.

Ashley’s personalized stationery set is absolutely stunning! The Corner Adorner and Seasonal Borders pairing is a match made in heaven. The bright blooms really stand out against the neutrals she used otherwise. Who wouldn’t want a set of these gorgeous notecards?

Supplies:

STAMPS: Corner Adorner: March, Penned Elegance Alphabet
INK: Smokey Shadow, Honey Nut, Harvest Gold, Summer Sunrise, Pure Poppy, Scarlet Jewel, Blueberry Sky, Dark Indigo, Limeade Ice, Melon Berry, Sweet Blush, Hibiscus Burst
PAPER: Vintage Cream Linen

These monogrammed notes are equally as beautiful. Ashley’s choice to incorporate die cut flowers instead of stamped ones gives these cards an extra bit of texture and dimension. The Penned Elegance alphabet is such a fabulous size and style for monograms!

Supplies:

STAMPS: Corner Adorner: March, Penned Elegance Alphabet
INK: Smokey Shadow
PAPER: White, Bitty Big: True Black, Harvest Gold, Pure Poppy, Hibiscus Burst, Aqua Mist, Limeade Ice
DIES: Make It Market: Garden Gild, Polka Dot Parade #6

Aren’t these tags simply lovely? The Penned Elegance alphabet is so forgiving and easy to use, but it makes you look like a hand lettering phenom! Ashley’s clean design lets the lettering command attention and make a stunning statement.

Supplies:

STAMPS: Penned Elegance Alphabet
INK: Fresh Snow, Smokey Shadow
PAPER: Kraft, White, True Black
DIES: Good Tidings Kit (Tag)

Michelle Leone is featuring Dream, Fly, Soar! + Dream, Fly Soar! Sentiments.

Michelle’s itty bitty kite shaker may be the cutest thing ever! Small, unexpected details like that are part of why handmade cards are so special.

Supplies:

STAMPS: Fly, Soar, Dream!, Butterfly Blooms
INK: Blueberry Sky, Pale Peony, Spring Rain, Mint Julep, Cocoa Bean
PAPER: Stamper’s Select White, Pale Peony, Mint Julep, Bitty Big: Mint Julep
DIES: Fly, Soar, Dream!, Fly, Soar, Dream! Sentiments, Butterfly Blooms, Shape Shifters: Oval 1
OTHER: Misc. beads, mini pearl embellishments, PTI clear acetate

Michelle has always astounded us with her incredible patterned paper pairings, but on this card she’s managed to incorporate two different textured patterns instead. Stripes tend to love dots anyway, but to make extra sure that there wouldn’t be a clash she kept both patterns the same, crisp white. That keeps her design from being too busy and really lets the sentiment take center stage.

Supplies:

STAMPS: Fly, Soar, Dream!
INK: Pure Poppy, Green Parakeet, Blueberry Sky
PAPER: Stamper’s Select White, True Black
DIES: Fly, Soar, Dream!, Fly, Soar, Dream! Sentiments, Bold Borders: Diagonal, Shakers & Sprinkles Kit
OTHER: polka dot embossing folder

Michelle combined several of the small balloon die cuts from the Dream, Fly, Soar! set to create a focal point for this card. Using multiples together is a great way to let those small images take the lead. She has also incorporated so much texture here – from the twine to the scoring and die cut frame – that her project is loaded with interesting elements.

Supplies:

STAMPS: Fly, Soar, Dream!
INK: Cocoa Bean, Blueberry Sky
PAPER: Classic Kraft, Stamper’s Select White, Bitty Big: Blueberry Sky
DIES: Fly, Soar, Dream!, Fly, Soar, Dream! Sentiments, Mix & Mat: Postal
OTHER: Rustic Jute button twine, stitched circle dies
