Hello there, Sam here. I feel like florals and arches are made to go together, think it is because of the many beautiful arched trellis you see with floral vines growing all over them . Today I combine the Sweetheart Floral Impress-ion & foil plate with the new Arches dies for my card interpretation of a floral arched trellis.
Read MoreEnjoying all the wonderful goodies in the LDRS Creative Spring Release. Really like the spring look and feel of the Pattern Paper Pad Beautiful Day. The inspiration for this card comes from the fact that the same pattern paper is in a variety of different colours.
Read MoreContinuing to play with the New LDRS Spring Collection. Really love the big dies that are in this release, so far I have played with the Large Leaf Dies and Large Flower Dies. You can find some inspiration for ink blending with the Large Leaf Dies and Large Flower Dies on my instagram feed @samjolden or LDRS blogs feature day. Today however I am creating a shaker butterfly with the Large Butterfly Die.

It was probably one of the first sentiment die sets that I ever bought because the multiple size options made it so versatile.
