Another super fun kit - and the kit starts out a fun-fold cards - so instead of me going to a fun-fold - I went back to regular A2 bases.  One of the best things about this kit is the abundance of flowers you get - you can keep making cards and it will take you a long time to run out.

Alternative #1 - 

I cut one of the easel sections apart and mounted it onto a base of Strawberry Slush cardstock.  Using one of the dots from the included stamp set - I added dots with Barely Blush and Crisp Cantaloupe inks. Then added sentiments and flowers and voila - how wonderful is that.

I also finished the inside of the card and envelope - 

Did basically the same thing with this card - cut the blue layer down and placed it on a Basic Beige A2 base.  Besides the sentiments and flowers on this one; I added a few of the Current In-color butterfly embellishments.

And then finished the inside and the envelope.  In this case adding some of the die cut flowers to the inside.

I hope you've enjoyed these alternative ideas.  Don't forget about the Add-On dies for this quarter's kits as they are wonderful -
