Beautiful Blooms
It’s Tuesday and that means it’s time for a new cue word challenge over at CASology!
It appears spring is finally here (and maybe even scooting over for summer to take over)! With it, the trees are greening up nicely and a visit to the local arboretum reveals plenty of flowers are blooming!
I chose to take the cue word literally and used a bright bloom on my mostly white card. I added a little texture with an impression plate. Then, I used a “hello” die to cut out the bold sentiment. I added some polka dot decorative paper behind it. The flower’s center was popped up after adding some clear Stickles for shine. The embossed panel and flower are both popped up with foam dots. The card corners were rounded to finish things.

This is such a beautiful card, Melissa! I LOVE the yellow bloom and die cut and how you added texture with your embossed background…so pretty!
Ohhhh this is sweet Melissa! I love the polka dot hello!!
The bloom in your photo is amazing just like your card version. White and yellow is such a gorgeous combination!
Oh, Melissa, what a happy card! I love the yellow and white combination…just like a daisy! So glad the kitchen paint job is done, too…I agree, there is nothing like a fresh coat of paint to freshen up a room!
Glad normality is returning, Melissa. There is nothing like a fresh coat of paint, especially in the kitchen! Your bloom card is stunning and bright and happy with that polka dot hello! Magical!! Thanks for sharing that stunning photo, too. The flower center is mesmerizing!!
Love this sunny card! And I can not believe all the painting going on at your house. When I was pregnant, (and with only one other child to look after!), I was a princess and did as little as possible!
Beautiful! The colors are happy and remind me of my favorite flower, the daisy 🙂
