It’s time to stop and smell the flowers… and fresh scrapbooking opportunities! Why’s that? Because the Botanical Burst collection has bloomed like wildflowers on the CM scene! These mix-and-match supplies were inspired by full-bloomed florals and fresh foliage (Hint: You’ll find cherry blossoms, field mustard, hydrangeas and leaves with their corresponding hues of pink, yellow, blue and green, respectively!) that can sprout a garden of great layouts based on the outdoors, spring and summer, gardening, kids, birthdays and so much more!

This collection features four album covers, as well as four paper packs and four sets of foiled and embossed embellishments (and all of these in the four hues listed above)! Even better, if you want ALL the decorative products, you can in one click with the Botanical Burst Buy-It-All Decorative Bundle… and you’ll also get two BONUS complementing sticker packs that are ONLY available through this bundle (not sold separately)!
