Paper Sweeties Inspiration Challenge - June 2016

 
 
Welcome to the June 2016 Paper Sweets Inspiration Challenge!  Here is the inspiration photo:

 
So pretty!!  Love these colors!!  They were my inspiration... as is usually the case...lol!  And here is what I've created for you today:
 
 
I decided to pull out the wreath from April's Release set Hello Spring.  I knew it would be perfect with this color scheme.  I'm also linking up to the Classic Design Team Challenge for June... it's Anything Goes and you just need to be on any Design Team!  Lots of fun... you should check it out!

 
I stamped the wreath onto kraft paper with a brown ink and then stamped again in Versamark but offset it just a bit because I wanted the brown to show also and embossed in gold.  I love the way it came out.  I cut it out using the Hello Spring Sweet Cuts.  The large leaf sprays are from the Bee Happy Sweet Cuts (I just love to use these leaves as additions to so many cards).  The sweet little flowers and small leaves are also from Hello Spring and do you see the little curli-Q's from last month's Sweet Borders?  Still loving those of course!  And you're looking at a little bit of a sneak peek here .. the little birdie and nest?... perfect with the wreath, right?

 
  I used one of my favorite sentiment sets, the Happy Sweet Cuts and stamp set and that pretty stitched banner that I cut out of vellum is from last month's Sweet Borders as well.  I guess I managed to squeeze a lot of my favorites, old and new on this one!  And of course a few Paper Sweeties cupped flower shaped sequins to finish it off.
 
Thanks so much for stopping by today and please don't forget to hop on over to see what the rest of the Design Team has in store for you today:
