Flowering Fields Birthday Surprise

If you love flowers, especially tulips, bright colors, and everything spring, the Flowering Fields Suite is for you! I absolutely LOVE it. One sheet of the Flowering Fields Designer Series Paper in particular reminds me of my sister Joan. Every year, she has the most beautiful red tulips in her yard. They're stunning, and they're her favorite flower, so I definitely need to make her something special with this suite. I think you're going to love it just as much as me.

The Flowering Fields Suite is also one that will appeal to those who love to travel and see different parts of the world. It reminds me of Holland, Michigan in the USA that celebrates with an annual tulip festival. It also reminds me of my trip to Amsterdam over 10 years ago. The Netherlands is a place I hope to return to someday.

In this Facebook Live Video Replay, I'll show you a new type of gift card holder featuring the Flowering Fields Designer Series Paper. I made these for birthdays for some special people with spring birthdays. I think they will all be pleasantly surprised with this creative packaging for their gift card.

Cutting and Scoring Dimensions:

• Card stock base = 5 1/2" x 4 1/4"
• Card stock layer = 5 1/4" x 4"
• Designer Series Paper = 4 1/4" x 9 3/4", score at 3 1/4" and 6 1/2" on long side. Fold and form pocket as shown in video.

The Flowering Field Suite has 2 stamp set & dies bundles – Flowering Tulips Bundle and Tulip Fields Bundle. The birthday sentiment used on these gift card holders is from the Flowering Tulips Stamp Set.
