Hello and welcome to our Friends of Unity April Blog Hop. This
month the theme is patterned paper. For my inspiration, I headed straight to my scrap bucket and found some coordinating spring colors and let them shine! I try to use these smaller strips of paper often and not let them build up. There are so many beautiful card options you can make with these leftovers.
This paper was found right near the top, so I must have used it recently for something. It reminds me of spring that is hopefully right around the corner. I opted for a very neutral sentiment so this card could be sent as a pick me up to a friend that needs a kind word or a simple thinking of you card. A quick brush of Wink of Stella across the wings makes the bee really stand out across the horizontal layer.
We all on the Friends of Unity design team appreciate every single comment we get.
That's why we use our own stash every month for a giveaway.
