Velvet Meadow Inspiration

I've had such a fun time creating with the new Velvet Meadow Collection released last week. The designer paper is especially unique, with soft white velvet flocking layered onto some of the floral images for beautiful texture and dimension.

The collection also includes Velveteen paper in Peaceful Pine, Bubble Bath, and White — and I can’t stop touching it every time I pull it out. Maybe it’s my inner 80’s kid remembering fuzzy posters, but this collection makes me ridiculously happy.

Of course, it doesn’t hurt that Berry Burst is part of the palette too. That color has always been my happy place… and if you’ve seen my logo, you already know I have a soft spot for it!

Now time for artwork!  Don't stop scrolling.  There's a show stopper with a tutorial at the bottom!

This is just one of many Collections in our new May thru August Catalog.  

A new catalog!


Okay, more card.  Here's another collection, Valley in Bloom.

Product of the Month:  Berry Botanical

Every month, SU! offers a $5 product with a $75 order.  This month is Berry Botanical, 12 sheets of gorgeous vellum.  This vellum is vibrant and heavy and will work so well for cheery cards and scrapbooks.  This was my first card.  I can't wait to create more.  

My goal is to get back to posting artwork, more than just on Facebook.  Check back for more!
