Pretty Petals Birthday Cards

 Good Morning & Happy Sunday, Friends!

Hope your enjoying a nice weekend! It's been pretty rainy & dreary here in PA the last few days! Here's to hoping the sun makes an appearance today! I finished up Audrey's card order yesterday so today I will be working on finishing up addressing my Easter cards and getting some card kits prepared for a Stamp Day w/ Friends get together which I am thinking of having the week after Easter if all goes smoothly. I say that because the last few weeks I have not been feeling good due to my blood pressure being way too low. I have been closely monitoring my blood pressure readings and have finally stopped my BP medication. 

Today I have 2 pretty cards to share with you using a stamp set from the Online Exclusives list called Pretty Petals. I fell in love with a card that was made by LeeAnn Greff and I ordered the stamp set. I've made several cards with it and loved each & every one! I paired this stamp set with the Everyday Happiness DSP from the 2025 Spring Scrapbook Catalog.







Card Details:

Stamps: Pretty Petals (Online Exclusives), Greetings of the Season & Everyday Greetings (both from the Online Exclusives)
Ink: Lost Lagoon, Pretty Peacock, Wild Wheat
Cardstock: Lost Lagoon, Wild Wheat, Pretty Peacock, Basic White, Everyday Happiness DSP (2025 Spring Scrapbook Catalog)
Accessories: Countryside Corners Dies, Stylish Shapes Dies, Circle Layering Framelits (retired), Brushed Brass Butterflies, Various Ribbon, Dimensionals, Tombow Multipurpose Liquid Glue

If I had to choose which one I liked better....well, I don't think I could as I like them both!
I like the colors & prints in this pack of DSP which I think helps to pull the Wild Wheat into this color combination. I've said I was not a big fan of Wild Wheat but I do like it here with these 2 colors (Lost Lagoon & Pretty Peacock). I'm honestly not sad to see this 2023-2025 In Color leaving as I found it hard to use these last 2 years. Have you seen the new In Colors coming for the next 2 years? I was so hoping for a teal color but not happening this time around.

My thoughts today...


Thanks for stopping by & have a wonderful day ahead!

So very pretty! I don't like Wild Wheat either, but since I love this paper, I've begrudgingly used it! Love all the different combinations you got!
