Hi everyone! Have you seen the NEW Memory Box Gladiola Release? I’m not sure how many flowers we’re up to now but a gal could make a big bouquet if she had a notion to!
Easy card here…I picked two patterns from two 6×6 paper pads, cut them in strips, used scor-tape on the back to hold them together, then glued it to a white cardbase.
I die cut the Gladiola Blossom and Leaves die in Neenah heavyweight white cardstock and ink blended on the colors.
A little Shaded Lilac Distress on the flower petals, then Wilted Violet Distress on the stamens and on the edges of the flower petals.
For the leaves I used Altenew inks, Shadow Creek and Mountain Pine.
I used my favorite thin mounting tape to adhere the flower and a little on the right side of the Happy Birthday to you circle sentiment Greeting Tab.
And it was done! A2 size. I love this green plaid! It looks like the green outside right now! We’ve had lots of rain so everything is growing beautifully!

What a pretty card Pam! I love that background paper! It goes so well with your die cuts. We haven’t had any rain for quite some time. Thank goodness for our automatic sprinkler system or our yard would probably be brown by now!
Beautiful card Pam, that pattern paper goes so well with your flowers!
The card is beautiful! The flower just pops right off the card! Patterned paper works great !!!
Pam this is so lovely – the colors and spring feel are gorgeous!!
I’ve been trying not to look at the glads, yet here I am. You don’t make it easy! I still have all the flowers from my previous purchase yet to use, sheesh. I’m trying to wise up about my whims and indulgences. This is soooo gorgeous. Your coloring of the bloom is beautiful, and those leaves look so real. You know my weakness for designer paper, too. Pam, it’s really nice to see you in our Double D gallery. Thanks for playing!
So pretty Pam!!
Wow, absolutely stunningly beautiful. Every time a new flower release comes out I want it all and you don’t help with your enabling LOL. Years ago I used to grow glads, now I just buy them at the veggie markets, much easier then having to dig them up each year, but they sure have some beautiful colors to choose from!!
Thanks for joining our challenges at Triple B, Double D and The Four Seasons.

This is a beautiful card. I love the glads, and the two patterned papers you used are so perfect with your beautiful flower. The lilac shading is perfect. Thanks so much for playing with us at The Four Seasons Challenge.
Oh Pam this is GORGEOUS!!! Purple is my color and Iris is one of my all time favorite flowers so your card really ‘screamed’ out to me! LOL BEAUTIFUL! Thanks so much for joining in the fun at our Double D, Triple B & Four Seasons challenges! Good Luck and we hope you’ll come back often.
