We are so excited to share a few more projects with our Paradise Collection from Cycling Team Member Ginny Hughes. She has some simple ideas for putting that extra special something into a project. But let's have Ginny tell you all about it...
My first project is this card. I am not a big cardmaker, but as soon as I saw these flowers I knew that they would make a beautiful Happy Spring card! I love that you can mix and match and make whatever you want!
This was hands down my favorite piece of paper from the collection, I just love it! So I had to use my scraps to make a card and I love the felt embellishments. They add great dimension and are fun little accents!
Ginny clustered our beautiful felt stickers with glass beads to accent her card.
My oldest daughter doesn't like pink or anything girly, so I loved that I could use these papers for a page about her and her playful side. I love the Confetti Garland, hands down one of my favorite things!!!
I also used the tag for some journaling and tucked it behind the photo.
I love that you can take bits and pieces from the flowers and use what you want. I thought the pinwheels made for a very happy page! I also used the long strip of words and cut it up to make my title fit to my page.
For me, paradise doesn't just mean the warm weather and the beach. Paradise is right out my front door! I love the colors of this line and think they are very fitting for a woodsy/lake theme page. I made a starburst pattern out of the patterned paper and added confetti and stars to keep it bright and happy!
Thank you Ginny for so many wonderful ideas and projects. Please visit Ginny's blog 5 Little Chickens for more inspiration.
Have a great weekend!

I really like what you created with the Paradise collection!
