Can you tell I like purple?

This week I am featuring Perennial Lavender 12×12 designer series paper and So Sincere stamp set. The stamp set is last chance, so get it while you can. I couldn’t decide which paper I liked better, so I tried both. This is a little different layout than I usually use.

Supplies:

Gorgeous Grape, Highland Heather, Basic White card stock, Perennial Lavender designer series paper, Gorgeous Grape ink, Eyelet 3D embossing folder, pop dots & Purple Adhesive Gems. A2 layout size, base layer is 5”x3.3/4”, the strip is 1/2” x 3 3/4”, the white base is 1 3/4” x 2” and the grape layer is 1/2” bigger, the designer series paper is 2 3/4’ X 3 3/4” and 1/2” layer bigger.

Leafing with Pretty Peacock

Back again with Nature Spotlight and Brights & Beautiful designer series paper. A somewhat of similar type as the leaves are colored in but this time I used a Blender Pen and kept the Wink of Stella. Wink of Stella adds the perfect amount of sparkle and shine without adding bulk to your card.

The layout of this card is simply a Pretty Peacock base followed by a layer of Pretty Peacock that is attached with pop dots and then a 1 1/2” strip of Brights & Beautiful designer series paper and then I stamped the leaves in Pretty Peacock ink and used the Blender Pen to color in and added stamped off little dots and finally Wink of Stella. I gently roughed up the paper and added inking around the entire image to look like a layer, but again it doesn’t add the weight to the card. Finished it off with some Adhesive-Backed Texture dots.

Supplies: Spotlight on Nature stamp set, Pretty In Peacock & Basic White Card stock, Brights & Beautiful designer series paper, Pretty in Peacock ink pad, Wink of Stella, Blender Pen, Adhesive-Backed Texture Dots & Pop dots.

Pops of Purple Thanks

This week I am featuring Brights & Beautiful designer series paper along with Spotlight in Nature. I loved this set when I first saw it, but when I went to grab it, it has never been used, so I had to fix that! I think it will be available online when the new catalog comes out. But lets talk about the paper.

It’s is on the last chance list, so better get it while its still here and that’s a fantastic price!!

I am starting the week out on a purple note! This card is special since I fussy cut the butterfly, something I am not a fan of doing is fussy cutting. One little item is okay, just not me!

I stamped the butterfly in Blackberry Bliss onto the Basic White 2” square and then I stamped another one onto a scrap piece of Basic White, fussy cut and used pop dots to attach it to the square. I couldn’t find my Fresh Freesia marker, so I used a little q-tip and dipped it into my Fresh Freesia ink pad. I couldn’t use a blender pen since the Blackberry Bliss ink would run. Finally added a little Wink of Stella and some purple gems and it was complete.

This card did not photograph the best, it looks better in person, the shine and sparkle from the Wink of Stella & gems is perfect!

Supplies: Fresh Freesia, Blackberry Bliss, Basic White Card stock, Spotlight on Nature stamp set, Brights & Beautiful designer series paper, Blackberry Bliss ink pad, Fresh Freesia marker or use my alternative, lol! Wink of Stella & Purple Gems. The card is a normal side card, which opens from right side, the BlackBerry Bliss squares are 1 1/2” square and the Basic White is 2” square. Pop dots were used on the BlackBerry Bliss base layer and on the Basic White 2’ square.
