Fruit & Flora Cards

By Jeanne Jachna

“Hello, my crafty friends! I hope you’re having a great day! I love to make cards to send personalized notes to friends and family and the Fruit & Flora Collection from Graphic 45 is a sweet summer treat! The color scheme is plum and strawberry with some fresh mint. The prints are an elegant fresh take on vintage botanicals.

My cards were made with the 8” x 8″ paper pad. My cards are all A2 size and the 8” sheets cut in half are just the right width for a card front. The prints are a bit smaller than the 12” sheets making the images easier to view in this format.

Tip: I powder the back of the stickers to remove their sticky backs making them easy to arrange before I commit to adhering them in place.

The die-cut pieces make wonderful embellishments – detailed die-cut butterflies and elegant flourishes are a treat for the eyes. The finishing touch was the addition of some gold pearl gems. They come in three classic colors – silver, black, and gold – all in the same package so you’ll always have some beautiful bling!
