Hello friends! I know it's been a while but summer was sizzling for me! It's hard to believe that it's over and my last kiddo at home started 7th grade today. I'm sure all of yours was just as busy! So I wanted to share some of my creations with Anna Griffin's Tropical papers with you. This collection was perfect for summer travel cards. I had so much fun creating with these papers. Here's a look as some of the cards I created. Pineapple embossing folder paired with die-cut flowers and the perfect sentiment. Sanded shell emboss paper is a perfect beach themed greeting! Hot pink and palms....a fave! I saved my favorite card for last. A flamingo die paired with a flamingo embossing folder. So fun and so cute! I really enjoyed creating these cards! I'll be sharing more this week, so be sure and check back. I also pin all of my cards to my Anna Griffin Designs Pinterest folder here. I hope you all had an amazing summer! May our Fall be full of crafting! {S}
