Big Hugs
by Lisa Elton

 
Are you enjoying all of the wonderful Nordic products in the shop as much as I am? Picking out the colors for the layers is half the fun!

I used papers from the Stormy Blue and Sunny Orange cardstock pads by Memory Box with a splash of sparkle from the Majestic Hues Glitter Pad. A few Pastel Jewels were added for good measure.

The Nordic Fancy Blooms are extra sweet. I die cut the two sets along with their shadow layer cut from vellum. There are three lovely little birds in the Nordic Bird Bunch set. I picked one variety for today’s card.

I wanted just a touch of color for my background, so I added orange cardstock to the back of the Cortina Pinpoint Plate.

I think it adds just the right amount of interest without distracting from the focal images.

I went back and forth on my sentiment color. I finally settled on a foiled one all dolled up in Rose Gold. I love the way it looks with these shades of peach and orange!

Thank you so much for stopping by. I hope I brought some crafty inspiration to your day!
