Hero Arts Tranquil Garden collection

Hi crafty friends! Today I'm sharing 2 super clean and simple card designs using the sets from the new Tranquil Garden collection from Hero Arts. 
My cards use the Lotus Flower die set and sentiments from the Lovely Labels Press and Foil plates. I added some interest to my lotus flowers by sprinkling in a small pattern paper on a few of the die cuts and adding some ink blending and glitter pen to the tips. I think these simple technique adds so much to the overall look. 💗
For the sentiment, I kept it simple and just pressed them with black ink. The set comes with 4 sentiments, dies to cut them out as well as 3 frame options and a die for them as well. The sentiments are for very timeless and can be used on many cards!
 
Here are the sets I used: 
Lotus Flower die set (set of 33) $22.99
