Perfect Pairings... Thank You Kindly


This is one of my original, favorite color combos for a card (like, I remember one of my first card-making ventures was with this color combo!)...  green and purple.....  or in Stampin' Up terms....  Old Olive and Blackberry Bliss.

Read on to learn more.....



We start our card with an Old Olive card base, then added a layer of Blackberry Bliss card stock, followed by a layer of Wildflower Fields Sale-a-Bration Designer Series Paper - yours FREE with a $50 order thru March 31!

And...  Stampin' Up just announced three additional items you can get for FREE during Sale-a-Bration - check them out here!  I can't wait to get these items and start playing with them!

Next, we added a strip of Whisper White 3/8" Stitched Satin Ribbon to the card.  We also tied a "cheater bow" to this strip of ribbon - just take the ribbon (still on the bolt - it's so much easier to work with than a tiny piece of ribbon!) and tie it around the strip, then trim the ends to the desired length.

Next, we stamped "Thank You Kindly" from the Perfect Pairings Stamp set - another item you can get for FREE with a $50 order during Sale-a-Bration!

We also stamped those gorgeous flowers (my favorite flower in this set, for sure!) from the Flowering Fields Stamp Set - yet another awesome item you can get for FREE during Sale-a-Bration (thru March 31!).

Finally, we die-cut this greeting/flower piece with our Oval Framelits, then layered it on top of another Old Olive piece die-cut from the Ovals Collection Framelits as well.
