Hey everyone!
Greta Hammond here with my first post on the Queen and Co blog! My first assignment was a couple of cards using the new, super cute June kit, Pretty Presents.
I wanted to highlight the bright, cheery colors in the kit on this first card so I kept things simple with a white background and three small shaker presents in a line.

I color matched the toppings to the presents to continue the simple design and finished it with a sentiment stamped in black directly on the white background.

For my second card, I wanted a softer feel and created texture by layering the presents and patterned papers.

I created the presents by die cutting each several times with different papers to achieve a layered look. Two of the presents are flat die cuts while the third is a shaker box, designed to be the focal point of the card.

A stamped sentiment cut into a banner finishes off the card.
Thanks for stopping by!
