Fresh Freesia Abloom

This card from my Open House features a fun fold and the new Floral Impression Designer Series Paper and coordinating bundle, these are must adds to your card making stash! 


Creating the "pillar" is easy and the card goes together nicely. I designed the card to be a birthday card, many of the open house attendees chose to adapt the design to be Mother's Day card by moving the flowers together on the front banner. 


Check back for the other cards made at the open house.

Have a great day!
