I created a pretty note card using several digital papers from the Painted Garden Paper Pack 1 by Panda Bear Designs with Stitchy Bear's Digi Outlet. I love these papers! If this doesn't scream Spring, I don't know what does! ;) This was a super fun and super easy project that I paired with stamped greenery and a sentiment. I left the inside blank since it is a note card.
I printed four digi papers from the pack (all on antique linen cardstock), created the circle and lacey circle die cuts for the focal image along with the rectangular pieces. I stamped the image and sentiment, and matted all the elements on dark green cardstock, then started layering. I added some pretty green stitched ribbon and bow, along with some pink gemstones and a couple white flat-back pearls, and she was finished! I love how this turned out!
