Flower Garden Inspiration | Botanical Dragonfly Card and More with Zsoka

Planning a Garden Wedding
I’m Sharyn Sowell, the Spellbinders artist whose designs are all snipped freehand using only a simple pair of scissors. I’m delighted to share another sneak peek at my new Flower Garden collection that will be released very soon. This collection was snipped in English cottage garden and the garden just beyond my studio window, and each piece is designed with all the irregularities of art snipped freehand with a scissor, so your finished projects will achieve an artisanal hand made style. Because these dies are so intricately designed, they go together very quickly, with the dies themselves doing most of the work so you don’t need to spend a…
