Hi friends, hope you're all well.
A little while ago I was asked if I'd like to review some Hunkydory products....
.....oh yes I would.....I got to choose £30 worth of products and I knew exactly what I'd
like.....the beautiful FLORABUNDA collection. I chose the 8x8 paper pad and the
Florabunda Matt-tastic Adorable Scorable Collection A gorgeous mix of shabby chic style
toppers & embellishments, patterned cardstock & the most beautiful foiled raft card I've
ever seen!
The paper pad is an 8x8 double sided collection packed full of the lovliest
colours (pinks, duck egg, kraft ) and patterns (gingham, spots, florals) that all work together
so well. The luxury card collection is huge, it's all printed on the fabulous matt-tastic adorable scorable & contains a massive 16 foiled & die cut topper sheets, 16 foiled kraft card
& 16 matt-tastic adorable scorable cardstock. The die cut sheets are a fab assortment of
flowers, butterflies, images, frames, sentiments, tags....and there are also die cut boxes!
As usual, with Hunkydory products the
quality is amazing, the kraft card is like nothing I've seen before & the die cut topper sheets
are packed full of beautiful toppers & embellishments. And as for value for money, well to
be honest I don't think there's anything to beat it.......Hunkydory suggest the main kit will
make at least 32 cards....well I'd say double that at least, maybe even treble it, there
really is that much to work with.
I made a box, 2 card toppers & 2 cards.....and have plans for bunting, tags, more
boxes, more cards, more toppers & some home decor pieces for my craft room cos
funnily enough the colours & style of this kit match my craft room perfectly!
I used simple matting & layering techniques for my makes....some I kept neat & tidy,
other I distressed the edges. I used foam pads to give a bit of extra dimension
on the die cut flowers.
As for extra's, all I used was some card, card blanks & some faux gems & a couple
of die cut words....you really don't need to add anything else.
Florabunda is sold as a luxury card collection & in my opinion it most definitely is
luxury. It's so good to have a kit that you just know will all work together, it makes it
even better value for money. If the colours, florals or anything about this kit appeal
to you 1'd say go for it, you really won't regret it.......and there's more in the
range too.....a square book, inserts & adorable scorable!
I think there may well be a review part 2 very soon......that's the only thing with
this kit......once you start playing you won't want to stop!!
Thanks for reading this review.....if you've made anything with this kit I'd love
it if you'd let me know so's I could come take a peek.
