A sneak peek and hug of one of the projects with @stampinupofficial ‘s Bloom Boutique featuring all of the New 2026-2028 In Colors!

In French, the suite is called Échoppes De Fleurs.

I designed a fun 3D project using this beautiful collection as part of an exclusive video tutorial for L’Accent Créatif. Don’t worry if you don’t speak French — you can watch it with English subtitles on YouTube. Swipe left to see all our sneak peeks

Good news: the tutorial is FREE with any purchase of $60 or more during the month of May or if you are part of my team!

A Fresh and elegant floral collection filled with soft colours, beautiful blooms, and coordinating products perfect for papercrafting!

Mixing old with the new for today’s card!

For this project, I paired the Notes & Totes Dies with the beautiful Fern & Flora Bundle to create something fresh for our Color Fusers Blog Hop today.

This dreamy color combo is giving all the May vibes:
🍓 Strawberry Slush
🫧 Bubble Bath
🍏 Granny Apple Green
🖤 Basic Black

I also added a little extra detail using the Greetings for All Mix & Match Ephemera Pack (that pop of black though ) and some gorgeous new Designer Series Paper called Beautiful Ordinary Life.

And trust me… you do not want to miss the Dewdrops Embellishments launching May 5th — they’re the perfect finishing touch!

Hope you love this project as much as I do!
