Cards – April 2012

April is full of ideas for Babies, Chipboard, Tags, Ribbon, Flowers, Stamping, Simple Sentiments and so much more!  You’ll love the Things We Love section – The paper flowers, damask patterns, and vintage lettering of Echo Park Paper Co.’s “Victoria Garden” line will easily compliment any springtime or feminine card. It is full of soft colors and gorgeous florishes. The Style Challenge this month features umbrellas and a color palette of lilac, turquoise, and kraft. Check it out, and you’re sure to be inspired! This month’s Inspiring Sketches section features a trio of embellishments with a sentiment on the bottom right corner. Check out what our talented card designers have come up with! Our Designer of the Month is Jinny Newlin!  Jinny is a former kindergarten teacher living in a suburb of Kansas City. When she’s not taking care of her family, she’s cooking, gardening, sewing, taking pictures, and paper crafting. We cannot wait to show you her beautiful creations!
