As I was changing out an empty box of tissues, I noticed the colors on the empty one and decided to snip out one of the sides to use for inspiration. These are colors I certainly would never have come up with on my own!
The backing is a very dark green, and I liked the golds, oranges, and a bit of pale pink that were in the mix. After thinking about what set of dies I could use, I settled on a favorite set from Spellbinders: Club Blooms; it has lots and lots of flowers and leaves. Here's what I came up with.
supplies: 3 greens, orange, gold, red, and pale pink cardstock, Spellbinders Club Blooms, Simon Says Stamp Brushed Flowers sentiment, Hero Arts square die, adhesive foam squares
Here are the inspiration and my card, side by side.
Thanks for stopping by today - hope your day is going well!

Such a wonderful take on the Kleenex box, Lin - it's always so fun to be inspired by everyday things around us!! Your spray of flowers around the big sentiment looks amazing!!
Lin, I have never seen such a pretty box of Kleenex! OR a prettier card inspired by it! Bravo!

I love how you were inspired by the Kleenex box with your beautiful card. Love the colors you used and those pretty blooms. I am setting here looking at the same Kleenex box by my computer and I can see how you were inspired.
You nailed this, Lin and the results are marvelous!
Beautiful Lin. Really love the way you used the inspiration from the tissue box.
How fun is this! Love your card inspired by the Kleenex box.
