LOTV New Paper Peek - Happy for You...

Good morning, all! Lili of the Valley has *six* new paper pads about to release on the 24th of this month, and they're all real beauties! If you caught our own Dawny P on Create and Craft yesterday, and you acted quickly, you were able to order some of these before the shop release, since they're exclusive to C&C until then. There are still a few available at C&C, but many of them sold out quickly. :)  Don't fret, however...there will be plenty restocked to the shop by February 24! I can't pick a favorite...they're all really so pretty.



Today I'm sharing a card that features the "Baskets & Bunnies" collection. Don't let the name mislead you...there are no basket or bunny papers here...just gorgeous spring colors and patterns that are truly a joy to work with. In fact, I used six (yes, you read that right...6!) different papers from this collection on today's card - these papers really deserve to get all the attention...



I used sentiment words from LOTV's Stamp F, Words for Tags and split them between a tag (from Set 14, A5 Tags) and the inside of the small air-dry clay frame next to the flower cluster. It's very subtle, but in the upper left corner, framing the "happy" tag, is a stamped corner from the newly released Set 68, Corners set - it's stamped and heat embossed with white ink and powder...





The floral cluster is centered with a pink and yellow gardenia that's surrounded with cream lilies, and small cream aster daisies, with lots of pearls and pearl trim...
