All Things Grow with Love


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!!

    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.ReplyCancel

    How pretty! Love the colors and the use of the doily. Have a blessed Saturday Becca.ReplyCancel

    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!ReplyCancel

  • Carol RMarch 19, 2011 - 7:47 am

    Beautiful! Love the yellow tulips with the doilies. Definitely ready for spring!ReplyCancel

  • EileenMarch 19, 2011 - 8:05 am

    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!ReplyCancel

  • DonnaMarch 19, 2011 - 8:14 am

    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!ReplyCancel

  • Mary H.March 19, 2011 - 8:24 am

    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.ReplyCancel

    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!ReplyCancel

    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.

    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.ReplyCancel

    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?ReplyCancel

  • Brenda JonesMarch 19, 2011 - 12:13 pm

    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.

    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.

    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!

    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.ReplyCancel

    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.ReplyCancel

  • SoniaMarch 20, 2011 - 8:55 am

    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!ReplyCancel

  • ConniecrafterMarch 22, 2011 - 9:29 am

    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!ReplyCancel
