Cloud9 May Blog Hop

I'm a huge lover of all things Wplus9 - they have wonderful stamps and dies!  Trouble is, somehow I don't own many of their products, so I haven't participated in many of their challenges.  But when I saw this amazing inspiration photo for the current Cloud9 May Blog Hop, I just had to give it a try!


Swoon, right?  LOVE these colors together.  I have no idea why, but I don't think I've ever paired them up.  So I took my one stamp set, Quilt Prints, and the leaves from my one die set, Folk Art Florals, and here's what I made:


I added some dies from some "other" companies along with a sentiment from a Simon exclusive stamp set.  LOVE how the Quilt Prints stamp up, and with all the options for fill-ins in this wonderful set, the sky's the limit with what I'll be doing with it!  

Thanks so much for visiting today!

Can't even believe how lovely this is, Lin! That color combo is wonderful and this design is so you, with the quilt, the roses and the hugs. What a delicate and delicious creation.

This is so pretty. Love how you used Quilt Prints. I'll be pinning this one. Like you, I only have a limited number of WPlus9 sets (so far), and I am always on the prowl for new ways to use them.

What a perfect card for the inspiration Lin - great job! I love the look of WPlus9 too, but don't have any stamps. This is making me wish for some even more though ;)
