For my assignment, I have created 8 cards that a full of some of my favorite products to use, as well as a couple of products new to Simple Stories! Let's jump right in shall we? I've included the card measurements and the supplies I used on each card underneath each of their photos.
Some of my favorite things about this collection are all the beautiful florals. This collection is brimming with all sorts of lovely flowers so they will be prominent in my designs. This card features the new Layered Chipboard Stickers. These add such a wonderful dimension which I love!

This card features some of the amazing Ephemera in the collection - I love that the ephemera was nice a large which made it super fun to layer and add embellishments to.
