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!

In today’s post I’m sharing another of the cards from the February card class featuring products from the Perennial Lavender Product Suite. Building on the last post featuring a fun fold, this design is a double Z-fold card. The Perennial Lavender Designer Series Paper provides a beautiful backdrop for the die cut leaves and the Paper Butterfly Embellishment. The card also uses the Thoughtful Moments Hybrid Embossing Folder to cut and emboss the sentiment.

It’s been a month since last posting! Where has time gone? Even though I haven’t taken the time to post, it doesn’t mean that I’ve not been crafting. Actually, I’ve been spending more time crafting than doing lots of other things. So today, I decided it was “computer time” and I’ve been busy outlining my posts for the next few weeks.
Now on to today’s card! It’s a book fold card featuring the Perennial Lavender Product Suite. The product suite features two stamp/die bundles – Perennial Postage and Painted Lavender. In addition, the suite features the Perennial Lavender Designer Series Paper and two different embellishments. For the February monthly card class, the cards all featured products from the suite. In addition, word sentiments from the Thoughtful Moments Hybrid Embossing Folder was incorporated on several of the projects. In the assembly video below, I also demonstrate how to use the hybrid embossing folder along with recreating the card.
