Graphic 45 Secret Garden

Oh my, have you seen Graphic 45's "Secret Garden" decorator paper? What a lovely pad of sweet prints...the illustrations remind me of early grade school days and the illustrations in books that I was learning to read. So special!



The 8X8" paper pad includes precious image panels (so many to choose from!!!) that you can cut out and layer to create a quick and easy card...no stamping today! Sharon has also put together a Secret Garden Silk Sampler...gorgeous! You can see all Secret Garden products HERE.

Here's a closeup:



The image panel is layered over a Natural with Gold Cluny Lace border, then fancied up with a May Art's Champagne Silk bow, tied with a Bow Easy, and tiny Prima Miss Godiva Caramel blossoms.

All supplies for today's project are from The Stamp Simply Ribbon Store.

Thanks so much for stopping by!

What a gorgeous layout of paper and bow and all. Just beautiful. Question is how do you get the tails of the bow to lay so nicely? Thanks.

Dottie: I use little pieces of glue dots to secure the ribbon tails to the card. They assist in making the ribbon stay in place.
