This coordinated card trio is a bit larger than a standard A2 size, and though I don't recall exactly, I'm thinking about 4" x 6" or 4.5" x 6.5" - somewhere in there. Sometimes is nicer to have just a bit more room to add your elements.

The wood background was actually stamped with a large retired stamp, but using 

Woodgrain Paper

makes it much easier!

And I'm all for EASE these days!

Birthday Poppies

Good morning! I love when a card just kind of jumps out at you, and the birthday card that Esther Asbury is sharing today does just that. And in this case, it's the colors that do it, that cause that 'jump'. Crisp and classic blue and white - a color scheme that is always a winner in my book. This card is so pretty, using one floral image to create both the background and the focal image, paired with a simple sentiment.

And note that we are currently running our Spring Storewide Sale giving you 15% OFF your entire purchase, so it's a GREAT time to shop. Be sure to read all the details at the end of this post.

Every inch of this card is filled with beauty, yet it remains so serene and calming.
