Pretty in Purple (Marble). Stampin’ Up!’s Simply Marbelous designer paper is gorgeous and I love it more each time I use it. It’s the perfect background paper with the soft designs on both sides. Best of all, you can get it for FREE during Sale-a-bration with a purchase of $50 or more. Don’t wait! Sale-a-bration is ending soon on February 28th!
Back to this lovely card. Besides the Simply Marbelous Designer Series Paper I used the Meadow Dies for the flowers. I am loving these silhouette-type dies! The Meadow Dies can be found in the Annual Catalog or here in my online store. The dies coordinate with the Quite Meadow stamp set. These items can be purchased separately or together as a bundle saving 10%.
Any of the colors of designer paper would have worked well with this design. Blues, pinks, grays, yellows, greens or purples. I can’t remember why I chose purple but it may have been because I had ribbon that matched the card. That’s how I make design decisions sometimes. 😊
The sketch to the left here is the one that I used today. As you can see, I stayed pretty true to the sketch again. I have both the horizontal and the vertical piece even though my vertical piece doesn’t go all the way to the bottom of the card. I did add a piece of ribbon to my card for a little added interest.
This card was quite simple yet can be used for almost any occasion. Have a great day! Take care and Happy Stamping!
