Happy Monday! It’s time for our Create with Connie and Mary Inspiration Monday challenge! This week’s inspiration is a trio of botanical prints! I love the clean simplicity of this photo!

Of course, I just HAD to use my Forever Fern on my photo. I was wishing I had the new In Color Inks when I was making this…but made do.

Stampin’ Details:
-
- The base is 4-1/4 x 11 Cinnamon Cider cardstock, scored at 5-1/2 and folded.
- On top is a 4 x 5-1/4 layer of Whisper White.
- The second from largest circle in the Layering Circles Dies cut the Cinnamon Cider 6×6 In Color Designer Paper, then that was cut in half and added down the center of the card.
- The leaves were stamped with Shaded Spruce, Crunb Cake and Crushed Curry Inks on Whisper White, then cut with the Forever Flourishes Dies. They were added to the front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
- The Cinnamon Cider Ribbon was tied in a bow and added with a Mini Glue Dot to the stems.
- Hello was stamped with Shaded Spruce Ink.
- Bumblebee and Just Jade In Color Enamel Dots were added in the background for a little bling.

I think the circle cut in half really give it the geometric look like the prints! OK…check out what Mary did with the Inspiration Monday Challenge over on Create with Connie and Mary!
