Hi there blog friends! Wasn’t yesterday just dreamy with the French Country, Mark Your Word and Chicken Wire? If I didn’t mention it, there are nine new sets and today we are previewing Florentine Frippery and Nordic Spring. It’s so hard to pick a favorite, but I love trying, so here goes :-)
This card is made using Florentine Frippery. Of course there are stamps in this set that match Spellbinders™ Labels Twenty Four so I jumped to use them together. I created a layered flower and alternated the layers with Spellbinders™ Persian Motifs and Spellbinders™ Persian Accents and filled in the center with Spellbinders™ Spiral Blossom Three. The sentiment – which is so cleverly archaic is hung on Spellbinders™ Office Supplies.
The border is created by lining up the filigree element from Spellbinders™ Damask Accents then layering a strip of paper over top. The Frippery pattern that is stamped on the border strip is simply exquisite!
For this card I used elements from Nordic Spring and Florentine Frippery. The heart is cut using Spellbinders™ Classic Hearts which I mounted over two cuts using Spellbinders™ Labels Twenty Five. I love, love, love the matching stamps!!
Using the Nordic Spring I stamped the border and folded it to make an elevated banner.
I love the sentiment. It really pokes fun at archaic sayings and this is definitely not a stamp or sentiment you already have in your stash, lol!!

Marcie
another beauty! Are you at least going to put an etsy link so we can find you when you put your cards up for sale?????
WOW think this is so delicate, the colour and the pattern.
So femmine.
Think you could save a lot of time if video while you make a project. Then dont have to do all the typing on your blog. Just a list of materials and items used. Think of the more time you would have to craft lol
best wishes as always
Wow Becca, these cards are beautiful! I especially like the Florentine Frippery stamped elements, I think it must be the colour. Absolutely beautiful, thank you for sharing again, you are a true inspiration (I’ve said that before but it is so true!)
Beautiful cards, love the diecut and stamped border with the lovely flower.
The second has such a lovely cross-stitch feeling to it
Darling cards! Love both of them, especially the blue.
Both cards are stunning! I don’t know why, but the first one in the pretty aqua blue reminds me of a butter cream frosted cake! So yummy to look at!
Love these…they are amazing! Love it, love it, love it!
Blessings

This is a Stunning card! Absolutely beautiful.
I know it isn’t meant to be funny, but I love that forsooth sentiment! I smiled when I saw it on your beautiful card. This set is so elegant and I love the layering and beautiful bow.
Oooooooooo! What a lovely card! Great job!
My goodness Becca! Two most elegant presentations here! I love the colors on both – all the pearls, the wonderful layered and curled labels to create your blue flower, the die cut edges – the pink heart layered over the red label with that gorgeous multi-bow ribbon, pin and flowers – I could look at these for an hour and still see more details!
Just gorgeous Becca. Beautiful cards. TFS
Good morning Becca,
Oh my, I love both of your cards this morning, especially the aqua card,(at least I think it’s aqua). No matter, you did a wonderful job in pooling all the elements together. I don’t know how you do it day after day. I could work all week and only get one card to look decent (lol) the rest would end up in the round file. Thanks for sharing, and have a great week.
Becca….these are just beautiful. I think you personally keep the pearl providers in business! Did you ever get my personal e-mail to you?
Stunning!!
I’m totally and completely gobsmacked…
and that’s all I can say!
Hi Becca! Thanks for sharing this beautiful card (they’re always beautiful!) with us today. I was wondering if it’s possible to one day do a tutorial on using the Spellbinders Spiral Blossom Three. Thanks for all your inspiration!
Beautiful as always Becca!
Oh la la! the turquoise one … Both are beautiful but the turquoise one I always want to go back and have another look.
Super cards.
Merci Francine
It is so wonderful to get up and see a post from you each morning. Even though I don’t have the supplies and tools you do everything you share inspires me to get in my Craft Closet and create something beautiful. Your cards are both so lovely but that flower is amazing!
Blessings Bernie
Bernie (comment 38) said everything I was going to say. Maybe I could add that I love both cards, but the turquoise one has stolen my heart.
Beautiful cards! I love the way you made a flower with the Frippery set!
What is this hear about easy acc.?
Sorry, meant Etsy acc.
So beautiful and elegant Becca!! I love the soft blues and all the elegant details of the first card. And the bold, charming, rustic feel of the second just makes ya smile!!
OOOh, ahhhhh. This card is gorgeous! I love the colors, the ribbon, the flower, just every thing is splendidly done. Gosh. I am trying to think of something original to say but I can’t find the words to describe your creations. They are just out in a league of their own. If someone wants to excel he needs to hang with the big dogs. You are one of those from which to learn. Thank you.
Oh my what you do with Nesties! Your layered Label 24 flower card is out of this world! It doesn’t even look like paper! The curled edges on the petals are so smooth and lovely! Your Nordic card is so elegant, I just love the birds nestled in the heart with the lovely Frippery sentiment. I shake my head in wonder, heee!
I just think these cards are beautiful. Those sentiments are certainly different. The flower on your first card is so beautiful with the layers you
created with the Spellbinders.
Great news here!!! I finally got my Becca’s Peg Bow Maker, the CD and the most gorgeous and precious card. It is so beautiful and so elegant! I love it so very much!!!! Thank you, Becca!!!! I will treasure it forever!
I know I will LOVE my Becca’s Peg Bow Maker and I can’t wait to watch the CD. I just had to come to my computer to send this “thank you” to you. Thank you so very much!
Absolutely beautiful! I think your layered flower, pearly flourishes and satin bow are truly gorgeous, but then so’s the pink Nordic Spring card! Magnificent!
Beautiful and beautiful!
This is my most favorite card of ALL TIMES! It’s BEE U T FUL!
I HAVE to get this “frippery” set. Somebody appreciated my irreverant side when they created this! Love it to pieces!
Speaking of loving it, I love what you did with the aqua flower. Stunning! I just bought Labels 22 yesterday (if I remember correctly, you were responsible for introducing me to that as well :) ), now I’m going to have to go shopping again. Whatever will I do?
Thank you for such a fun way to end the day!
Becca,
My husband always knows when I pull up your blog because I let out a little gasp each time I see one of your beautiful creations!! What elegance, what a stunning flower and the aqua is so soothing. Your heart card is so pretty. The lace, bow and stick pin just works so well together. These knew stamps are so wonderful and will have to order them, along with the flower #3. I bet these companies see a serge in orders every time you post a card!!! I hope you get a cut!
And then today, I rec’d happy mail. The bow maker came in and I can’t wait to start playing. Thank you for all your contributions to the craft world. I tell my husband you are the reason the mastercard bill is so high each month!! (Just kidding, he gives me a craft budget each month.)
Hugs,
Cindy
Hi Becca, Just Beautiful. Your cards are the absolute most fantastic in the world. I recieved my bow maker today and the card that was with it is just gorgeous. What a lovely accompaniment. I hope I can make some bows almost as lovely as the ones you make.
Thank You for making these beautiful cards and for your bow maker. I only wish I had the money to get all the Spellbinders to go with the bows I hope to make. I have some dies and I try to get some when I can. I love Spellbinders dies.
Thank You,
Take Care,
Charlene
Gorgeous projects Becca! So elegant and feminine!
Your work is amazing and very elegant. Thank you for sharing your talent.
Both are beautiful but I think the blue one is my favorite!
Hi Becca,
I can hardly find the words to express my feelings. These cards today are just wonderful; the first being one of my all time favourites now.
You are so clever and blessed with such a beautiful creative talent.
Have a good week. Hugs Linda
Another beautiful card to add to the list of favorites. As I read over some of these comments there is really nothing left to say as everyone is always in Heaven just looking at your creations. But I found something to top the list! Today I recieved my Becca’s bow maker and I was so excited to open the package. Now I have my own Becca card!!! It is so pretty and I am so pleased. My first bow was not hard to make either. Thank you for all the inspiration you give. I also have to agree with some of the comments on how I am inspired to buy by what I see you use. Great advertisement.
As always, your cards are absolutely stunning!
Your cards are always so gorgeous and I never get tired of telling you that! Just wanted to let you know I ordered your bow maker on Our Daily Bread and I’m really looking forward to making some incredible bows.
All I can say is WOW WOW WOW. You are amazingly talented. I just recently found this site and have already sent pictures of your work to my scrap friends. Simply beautiful and romantic!!!
Somehow I missed this one yesterday totally gorgeous cards. The way you manage to combine the stamps with the SB dies is truly amazing!!
I love the turquoise blue card, it is so elegant and the spellbinders you have used are beautiful….love the border stamp, it’s beautiful too…in fact the whole card is just beautiful LOL
Eileen

Wow! All your WMS projects are just gorgeous!!!
Robin
Very pretty card Becca, love the lace that you have used on the pink card but the blue card is stunning. Love the soft and laciness and the feminine touch that the card has. beautiful work. As always Becca, TFS!!! :-D
Becca, I have received my Bow Maker and love it, love it. I also was pleased to receive one your cards and truly appreciate you parting with some of your stash. Thank you again for all your inspiration, keep up the good work. May God Bless you, Love ya
I haven’t gotten my bowmaker yet; but, I am waiting, patiently. I ordered 4; 1 for me, of course; and, others for friends and family. Can’t wait to get it and try it out. Thank you, Becca!!
Wow, your cards are absolutely lovely! The layering, the details are always perfect. The first card, especially, took my breath away.
wonderful way to give the flower some pattern design, and I love this stamp of the border, never have enough of them
So gorgeous, Becca. Love the pink and red of your Nordic Spring card, and the flower you created from Florentine Frippery is outstanding!
Absolutely stunning!
