Hello there blog friends! Carol was so sweet yesterday – she emailed me to claim her Prima paper and I wanted to let everyone know. It will go out in the mail soon. In the meantime my post for today is going to be very brief. I have a card to share and the details are very simple. You see, I wanted to use that organdy ribbon that I used to make a test bow from. So basically, I’m backing into this card bow first, which I never do.
I picked some of the springy K & Company paper that had both white and yellow in it. The focal image is actually a K & Company die cut that is ready to use out of the package. I layered behind it a doily from stash (so old I cannot remember when I bought those)! Behind that layer, another with both sides bordered with EK Success Abstract Flowers. Pearls and big double tailed bow. That’s it!
SUPPLIES I USED |
Stamps: None Paper: K & Co. Ink: None Accessories: EK Success Abstract Flower, Pearls, OrgandyRibbon |
I hope where ever you are, it’s a beautiful day. Get out and enjoy it!!
Gorgeous Becca!!
Haha! a backwards card! I think half of mine are made that way. Very pretty.
Oh my word, Becca, I’m swooning over your yellow tulip card. I adore the lacy punch, pearls and the organdy bow absolutely “ties” it all together.
How pretty! Love the colors and the use of the doily. Have a blessed Saturday Becca.
Oh this is so yummy Becca…the tulips are gorgeous and I love the sentiment.
Love Sheila xx
This is so pretty and Springy. It makes me want Spring to arrive even that much more! Yesterday I noticed that my tulips are up about 4 inches. Anticipation!
Beautiful! Love the yellow tulips with the doilies. Definitely ready for spring!
This is a very Spring like card, my favourite time of year. Gardens and grass verges by the roadside are being covered with daffodils at the moment which is lovely…..so it won’t be long till our tulips are out too.
Will just have to keep admiring your tulip card till the real ones are ready LOL

Becca, love, love, love this card, but that is nothing new as I love, love, love all your creations! You provide me so much inspiration, thank you! A quick question, do you use a standard size for cards? I know sometimes you list a specific size for the card but most of the time you do not. Just wondering if there is a size you prefer to work with regularly? Thanks! Love ya!
Becca another beautiful card…you are so talented and your love shows through your beautiful work
Becca, I love, love, love this card, but that is nothing new as I love, love, love all your creations. You provide me with so much inspiration! I’m new to card making and am wondering if there is a particular size you prefer working with to create your lovely cards? I know sometimes you list a size for the card but most of the time you do not list anything. Please keep creating such wonderful designs for us. Thanks….love you!
Very pretty, Becca.
Have a great weekend!
Well, just as usual: LOVE-LY! I’m liking how you used all the doilies and of course, the beautious bow! Saw the bountiful package that you sent to Martha N. What a generous gift that was to her. She brought your gorgeous cards to our stamp group, so we could see first-hand just how marvelous they are. They are always so pretty to see on the blog, but OH, how much more wonderful to see up close & personal. Thanks so much for sharing your special creativity with Martha & all of us. Blessings.
This is stunning Becca. Love the flowers and that ribbon.
ohhhhhh pretty
So “springy” and pretty. A wonderful card for someone special!
This is so Gorgeous! Springy and I love the colors!!!!
This is gorgeous Becca, it would make a lovely Easter card. I love how you have offset the main focal to add some interest. As always Becca, TFS!!! :-D
Hello Becca just a georgeous Becca card, i love the lacie doylie and the lovely daffofils that just lift the soul. thanks for the inspiration!
Hugs Chrissy xx
Oh, it’s like a breath of Spring, beautiful Spring! My favorite season as I always thing of our second chance with all the new beginnings.
You made a ‘lovely’ once again.
Have a blessed week.
Hugs, Jeanielou
so, you know you charge for tours of your workroom by special appointment and become your own tourist destination for your reader s I would put your workroom on my travel itinerary! I’m referring to how easily you throw something together out of what you have in your stash. the card is beautiful, inspiring. ok time for me to clean up my “crap” room and convert it back to a craft room..that’s real inspiration!
This is amazing Becca!
BEAUTIFUL Becca!!~
What a super lovely card “just” put together quickly. Yeah, right! What a pretty creation and so springy. I love the colors of spring and am tired of the rain here in California. Will be heading to The Netherlands for the tulip festival next month and can’t wait to see those millions of tulips just like the tulips on your card. Thanks for another great inspiration.

Oooohhhh! Just gorgeous, Becca!
I am SO ready for spring and this card is a great reminder of it :) Gorgeous!
Becca, your card is beautiful as always. Your bows are always so very beautiful. Thank You, by the way, for Becca’s Bits. I’ve learned much from you and always enjoy watching them. You always fill my mornings with sunshine…even when it’s snowing…like it is right now….I don’t think Mother Nature got the memo… :-) Have a wonderful weekend and again….Thank You.
Lovely! This card just oozes Spring! I love all the lace, and pearls, and the colors. Of course the white sheer bow fits right in!! Thank You!
Can we say SPRING!!! LOVE it! Loved that bow on the Becca Bits but even more on this card.
Blessings Bernie
Very pretty, and so reminiscent of Spring. You’ve done it again Becca.
Hi,
I love this card!
May I know how do you send out this kind of card with such a big bow?
Will you make an envelope for it?
Becca,
I’ve followed your blog for a long time. Your cards are beautiful and inspiratonal. Often your words bring tears to my eyes. I tried for years to create cards following your lead, but never could get all the elements together.
So, I moved on. Then the great God above who is always good, gave me something I could do better, and love!
As I was writing my blog today, I kept thinking of you. I can only believe He was bringing you to my mind. So, I want to share today’s bit with you. Hope you can find time to drop by.

Beautiful. Those flowers are just stunning.
Hello Becca,
I’ve followed your blog for a long time. Your cards are unique and beautiful. Your words inspiring. I tried for a couple of years to follow your lead, but could never get all the elements of cardmaking together. The good Lord gave me another hobby – jewelry making. I just love it, and am learning every day.
As I wrote my blog today for some reason I kept thinking of you. I can only believe He was bringing you to mind. So, I’d love to share the bit I wrote today with you. Hope you have a minute to take a look.

Lovely card Becca….and I’m on my way out the door!!!! Thanks for reminding me not to sit at this computer when it is nice outside! LOL!
Jan Castle
Woohoo! Spring has sprung at Amazing Paper Grace! Your latest is so delicate and fresh, just like Spring. Love the doily. Have a great day.
Becca,
I love this card. It is so springy & the colors are perfect. Thanks for sharing.

Oh Becca –
I love this card! It is just so beautiful. It is perfect for your bow!
Elaine Allen
Beautifu Becca and I remember watching you make that beautiful bow on your tutorial……more than once!!! Also, isn’t nice to use something from a very old stash? It feels good.
Gorgeous card Becca, perfect for spring

Dear Becca I want to thank you for sharing all you do. You work just blows me away it’s so elegant, beautiful, and just perfect. I just love your bows and you share how to make them.
Hugs Debbie
Backing into a card, or going face forward, or sideways, or upside down ………it really doesn’t make a difference how you approach making your cards, they all come out stunning.
Pretty card, Becca!
hugs,
Another gorgeous creation. Everything you do is just amazing. Such creative ideas you always come up with! Love to see what you come up with each day!
I love this card it is very very cute. Thank you for sharing.
Have a great day :)

What a lovely tulip die – I should have guessed it is K and Co. Everything they make seems to appeal to me. You have turned the bow and die into another lovely card Becca.
I have some of those really old doilies, too. In two different sizes! Maybe I’ll be inspired to use them after seeing your card.
Beautiful!…….
So pretty Becca xx
I love this card! The die cut is gorgeous! I also like how you tipped some of the paper on the diagonal. I do not usually do that but I have seen it twice now in a short period of time and I really like it so I am going to try it. I am sure I have seen it done before, but it did not hit me in quite the same way. Isn’t it funny how that can happen? Thanks once again for sharing a beautiful card to spur on our own creativity!
Beautiful, you just have such a great way with your layering, like how the border punches go so well with your doily too, great image, love the colors!
Becca,
beautiful card. Love the colors and the tulips. It is such a reminder of spring!
very pretty card – fresh and bright.
