Avery Elle May Release Blog Hop


Welcome to Avery Elle's May Release Blog Hop!
You should have arrived here from the blog of our fabulous guest designer
of the month, Amy Kolling. If not, start at the beginning at Avery Elle
so you won't miss an ounce of inspiration from the design team.

There's a ton of new products, from stamps to dies to card stock
and SEQUINS! Plus a chance to win a $25 gift certificate to the Avery Elle store!


First, I'd like to share my cards featuring AIR MAIL, a fun set with images
to decorate tags, envelopes or the back of your cards.
 
I chose the arrow from the set to create a congratulatory card
on the new Sugar Plum card stock.
The sentiment is from Petals and Stems.
 

My second project uses the striped frame together with
the flower and leaves from Petals and Stems.


The gorgeous sentiment is from Sentimental Swirls.
