Wonderful Nature's Poem

Welcome back to my blog.  I hope you have had an enjoyable weekend.  Weekends in our house are usually pretty busy, and this one was no exception.  The only difference was it was a different kind of busy and instead of their usual weekend activities my eldest two children went on a road trip to go on a university tour.  So, the house was very quiet for a few days, allowing me plenty of time to prepare for a class on Saturday afternoon...I even baked a coffee cake to share.

I prepared a stack of cards to share with the class, some of which we made during the class, the others were to show how versatile the ingredients were.  This card shows off the Nature's Poem papers wonderfully.  I must admit the I am a little late to the Rooted in Nature party.  I have owned the stamps, dies and papers since the annual catalogue launched, but I haven't created with them nearly enough.  Over the past few days I have addressed this "problem" and I'm really pleased with the results.  The more I crafted the more ideas I generated.  Does that happen to you?

This card shows off both sides of this gorgeous autumnal paper by trimming and spinning the layer of paper and hiding the join underneath the Burlap ribbon.  The design is simple and versatile yet it can be embellished elaborately or decorated modestly as you so choose.  I have used one of the True Gentlemen buttons tied with linen thread and some leaves punched from the Sprig punch.  Wonderful!

As always, happy crafting,
