Pressed Petals DSP Is Perfect For Valentines!

Here is quick and easy card using Pressed Petals DSP and a Valentine-perfect sentiment from Incredible Like You. I had been on a personal challenge to use more of the Pressed Petals DSP.

It is a beautiful paper and I love vintage looks for Valentine’s cards. This was very quick and simple to put together because the gorgeous paper is most of the card! I kept the add ons and layering confined to a small space at the bottom of the card to show off the paper. The Merry Merlot was chosen to frame the paper because I thought it really popped the flowers on the DSP. The DSP is coordinated with Mossy Meadow, but I thought Old Olive brightened up the card, so I used Old Olive as the case card stock. What’s really funny is I used the Old Olive side of the Pretty Peacock-Old Olive 3/8″ Ribbon and Mossy Meadow Linen Thread, but each looks like the other! But, I think it worked.

The sentiment uses Swirly Frames, the sentiment from Incredible Like You and Merry Merlot Hearts cut using the Detailed Bees dies. Because I am always looking for “more” I punched out a couple of leaves I had stamped using the Painted Harvest set. I didn’t really need them as they disappear into the background, but I liked them, so I kept them. I could have added a Merry Merlot accent with the leaves, but I think that would have been going too far! A little bit of ribbon and some twine and the card was done. It couldn’t get any simpler than that!

I hope you all have a nice Valentine’s Day!
