Hi there, friends! We’re back with a brand new challenge at Beautiful Blossoms Challenge Blog, and as always, it’s Anything Floral Goes! For extra inspiration, there’s an optional mood board available. I can't wait to see all your gorgeous creations! Happy crafting!
Today I’m sharing my final card as a member of the design team and while it’s always tough to say goodbye, this decision comes from a place of love and necessity.
Due to recent changes in my family life, especially my father's health, I’ve decided to step down from a few of my design team roles to make more space for family time.
That said, I couldn't leave without sharing one more project — a card that I hope brings a little light and inspiration your way.
Thank you to Donna and my wonderful teammates! I’ve truly appreciated being part of this inspiring team.
For my final card, I decided to keep things clean and simple, both in design and sentiment — a quiet reflection of where I am right now.
I used the beautiful Altenew Hill Blossoms Layering Stencil Set to create soft, elegant florals that feel peaceful and uplifting. I blended Golden Sunset and Frosted Foliage Fresh Dye Inks through the layers, keeping the palette light and calming — a gentle contrast that felt just right for this moment.
The sentiment, “Just Believe in Yourself,” felt especially meaningful — not only for the card’s message, but as something I’ve been reminding myself of lately. Stepping away from this team to focus more on my family hasn’t been easy, but I know it’s the right choice.
Thanks so much for stopping by today. Your support and encouragement have meant more to me than I can say.
Though I’m stepping down from this team, I’m looking forward to continuing to share my creative journey in a way that feels more balanced and intentional.
Until next time — happy crafting!

ReplyDeleteFirst of all, I am terribly sad to hear about your father's health and to hear that you need to step back. Though I understand, I will miss your beautiful monthly card inspirations. And this one is no different. I love the soft yellow flowers and CAS style. It's truly gorgeous. I wish you all the best and take care. ~ Amanda
ReplyDeleteCarrianne, this is a stunning card, perfect for a final card on your last challenge as a DT member. I know that must have been a difficult decision to make, but I know that your dad must really appreciate it though. Hugs to both of you, and thank you for playing along with us at Word Art Wednesday. We appreciate you and hope you'll be back often.
