I just LOVE the Pressed Petals designer paper and most of the items in the
Pressed Petals Suite.
This picture from the catalog just doesn’t do the paper justice — it is so pretty.
Here’s another fun card I made using the designer paper, Scripty Embossing Folder and the Petal Labels Die — love this look!!!
This card has a lovely softness to it that I just love.
The Petal Labels Dies are amazing — I just couldn’t get enough of them.
Last week I held a Pressed Petals Class. I had so much fun designing this class and playing with the washi tape. I think everyone should order the Pressed Petals Washi Tape. Each flower petal peels off separately and then I placed them on a 1″ circle of Very Vanilla cardstock. You can add as many or as few petals as you wish. I did one with four petals on each the top and bottom layers, staggering them to fill the flower. For other flowers I used six petal and just one layer. The Pressed Petal Designer Elements make a great center for the flower.
I just love the simplicity of this card. I cased it from fellow demo Susan Campfield. Susan used a different embossing folder — I thought the Scripty folder gave such an elegant finish to the card. The soft suede washi tape gives a fun look over the script background. The Petal Labels Dies is so elegant. It gave the perfect mat for the flower.
Yesterday I shared a masculine card using the Come Sail Away Designer Paper. Today I used the designer paper again and you’ll be amazed at how different this card looks — very feminine and a little vintage looking.
Isn’t this card gorgeous and so completely different than yesterday’s card.
