Plentiful Patterns Collection


The Polka Dot Leaves Die Set reminded me of my Begonia maculata var. Wrightii. These leaves have deep evergreen foliage with silvery spotting and a crimson underside. I took all of nature’s inspiration and paired the die with Build-a-Flower: Begonia layering stamp set.

This circle border die is one of three dies in the Mix and Match Frames Die Set. I couldn’t resist using an entire DMC floss on this card front…and I even ran out before I could fully stitch the entire cardstock. I paired this amazingly textured card with a Hello die and some sequins.

This Wave Form Cover Die is perfect for color blocking techniques. I added details to each die like bold black outlines and additional ‘drips’ with the Fine Liner Pen Set. To finish this bold card I added a Mega Label Love Sentiment and enamel dots.
