Hey everyone, I'm super excited to work with Petaloo featuring the "Treasure" collection by Authentique Paper.  For my project today, I created a fun chickadee card using the Textured Elements and the Botanica Collection from Petaloo, and for the card, I used some SVG Cuts which are a fun way of electronically die cutting your pattern paper and then piecing it all together.  I hope you enjoy!

These blooms add such a fun textured element to any project, and I just adore the chunky glitter that adorns the royal blue blooms from the Botanica Collection.  They are beautiful!  The burlap texture on the pistachio blooms adds a fun natural touch to your projects and I think these were the perfect pieces to compliment my card.

How sweet is this "Treasure" collection?  Living in South Florida, we didn't have much of a Winter, but I bet this collection is a sweet welcome to all the northerners that had to endure a long harsh snowy season.  This is the perfect collection for Easter and the ideas are endless.

I added some Fancy Trims, also by Petaloo as a bow around the chick's little neck, and a fun sentiment die strip along the bottom of the card. 

If you have an Eclips, Cameo, or Cricut, which are so popular these days, then you will find creating a card like this is so simple and fun.  I simply downloaded the "Hippity Hoppity" collection from SVG Cuts and created the "Chick" card from the collection. 

I also created a custom envelope from pattern paper from the "Treasure" collection, so your card will arrive in style and completely match the inside . 

I hope you've enjoyed my project today, and I hope I've inspired you to create your own.

Petaloo blooms...who doesn't love them? When paired with Authentique products you simply can't create fast enough! I kid you not, I created this 'hello spring' wreath in an hour. 

I started with a small, plain twig wreath, I then added several Easter egg stems to coordinate with my spring theme. Next, I added lots of Petaloo blooms - as you can see I'm a huge fan of those beautiful burlap blooms.

 I finished my wreath with several Treasure Collection components, including the 'hello spring' sentiment. Now this pretty wreath is gracing my front door!
