Irresistible Blooms for Kylie Bertucci's International Blog Highlights Winners Hop





Hello and welcome to Kylie Bertucci's International Winners Blog Hop! Today I'm joining Kylie Bertucci and a group of very talented demonstrators for a blog hop around the world. I'm so excited to be participating in the Top Ten International Highlights Winners Blog Hop! I earned this honor with my card, Lighting the Way. Thank you so much for voting for me.

The card I'm sharing today features the an Online Exclusive Irresistible Blooms Dies and Hello, Irresistible Designer Series Paper. Our Online Exclusive products are not listed in any catalog and are only viewable in our online store. I'll post a few pictures, but I have provided a link to a free tutorial download and also a video on how I made this card.


I love this Hello, Irresistible Designer Series Paper! I used 3 separate designs in the pack and my card base is Flirty Flamingo. The circle design was cut with a die from the Irresistible Blooms die set. 


The new Cross Hatch 3D Embossing Folder was used to add the texture on the 2 side panels.



On the inside I added a piece of Flirty Flamingo that was cut with another die from the Irresistible Blooms die set.
