The Paper Florist Dies can be easily overlooked in the catalog (their shown on page 33 and in the Dies section in the back of the catalog). It took me viewing the catalog for a few weeks before spying them and I’m so glad that I ordered the dies! If you’ve overlooked them, be sure to add them to your order. You’ll be glad you did.

This week I thought I’d take a break from card class posts featuring the Perennial Lavender Product Suite and I am sharing birthday cards with you. My birthday is in February and several of the Playtime with Paper team members recognized my special day by sending their handcrafted cards. It was a nice surprise the week of my birthday to receive the beautiful cards. And I’m a believer in celebrating for more than one day! According to my husband, I celebrate the entire month of February but actually I limit the celebrating to just a week!!! (LOL)
This first card was created by Linda Edwards (Crafty Heron Designs). It uses products from the Nature’s Sweetness Suite Collection. Her beautiful card has lots of texture and dimension.
Next up is a beautiful card created by Debbie Pekins. Her card features the Translucent Florals Bundle and coordinating Delightful Floral Designer Series Paper. The sentiment comes from the Inked & Tiled Stamp Set.
And last up (but certainly not least) is the card creation from Kim Wing. She decided to stop hoarding the Dainty Flowers Designer Series Paper (from Sale-a-bration 2023) and made this lovely card. Can you relate to hoarding paper because it’s too beautiful to cut?! The sentiment is from the Go To Greetings which offers common sentiments in a variety of fonts and sizes.
Celebrating birthdays are special and when you receive a handcrafted card, it’s even more special. My birthday was wonderful and a huge appreciation goes to these three card creators for sharing their talents with me to make it more memorable!
