Purple is such a funny color. It has all sorts of looks. It can be cool or warm, light or dark, bright or almost gloomy. I love Wisteria Wonder – but not on this card! Coloring the dahlia, I realized this was not going to work for what I wanted (but I finished it anyway!) Still wanting a “purple” card, I switched things up and tried this one –

Still “purple” but not so heavy. Instead of just coloring the images flat on the card, I used triple time stamping – only I just used two layers.

Supplies (Card 2)
Stamp sets – Another Thank You, Regarding Dahlias, Peaceful Petals
Cardstock – Wisteria Wonder, Basic Black, Whisper White
Ink – Jet Black Stazon, Wisteria Wonder
Stampin Write Markers – Pink Pirouette, Wild Wasabi
Etc – Soft Subtle Candy Dots

Now that it’s finished, I might have to
dig around and see if I have some Wisteria Wonder embossing powder.
That would be pretty. Hugs, Fran

The watercolor notecards in the Spring Mini (133362) are great to have around to make quick, thoughtful cards when needed. I stamped the flower from Peaceful Petals on watercolor paper, added some Chevron ribbon and here it is – a sweet card done in a few minutes.

Stamp Set – Peaceful Petal
Card stock – watercolor paper, Watercolor Wonder Designer Note cards
Ink – Jet Black Stazon, Crisp Cantaloupe, Calypso Coral, Wild Wasbi

Such a cute note to send – not every card needs to take hours Hugs, Fran

A Retro Fresh Peaceful Petals card! I like making these cards with a drawn frame and they are easy to do. First I stamped the flower and the greeting and then I drew the line around it – skipping the areas where the design touches the line. You can make a template cut 3/4″ smaller than you paper to make it easier. I colored this flower with Stampin Write markers and added some Retro Fresh Washi tape to the corner.
