Now that the holidays have settled down, I finally had time to create with some of the products in the “Perennial Lavender Suite”. For this particular card, I chose to let the Designer Series Paper (DSP) determine my color palette of Highland Heather, Gorgeous Grape, Fresh Freesia and Shaded Spruce.

Perenial Lavender Suite!

The “Perennial Lavender DSP” colors work so well together and this DSP is truly stunning! The folded card base is Highland Heather. The “Perennial Lavender DSP” is layered on Gorgeous Grape. I wrapped a piece of “White Baker’s Twine” around this panel twice before finishing off with a small bow. The greeting is stamped in Gorgeous Grape on Basic White card stock. The greeting piece is mounted on the card front with “Dimensionals”. I added a “Paper Butterfly Accent” that was colored with “Stampin’ Blends” and a “Blending Brush”. To complete this card, three (3) of the “Purple Fine Shimmer Gems” were added. Basically, the DSP from the “Perennial Lavender Suite” did the majority of the work for this card. Besides making this an easy card, I’m always in favor of letting the DSP shine!

Just a friendly reminder that “SALE a-bration” is in full swing! This is an annual promotion offered by Stampin’ Up! where customers earn FREE product for every $50 (or $100) they purchase. HERE is my previous blog post explaining the details of “SALE a-bration”. The FREE product selections vary from Stamp sets, Designer Series Papers, Embellishments, a set of coordinating Dies and even an Embossing Folder. Don’t wait too long to place your order as the popular items could become depleted and when they are gone, they are gone! My absolute favorite is the “Flight & Airy Designer Series Paper” which I hope to work with soon!
