Perfectly Paired, We Can Do This!

April 22, 2020 Filed Under: Gallery, Project Gallery

My card making focus has been on making cards I can send out now. With many of us confined to our homes for the time being, I think its nice to get run out to the mail box and find some “Happy Mail” now and then!

With that in mind, I knew I had to use this sentiment from Perfectly Paired. It is the perfect message for right now. And sending a card is a good way to stay connected. And the Perfectly Paired sentiments work for so many card designs. For this one, I wanted to use some Blueberry Bushel, one of my favorite of the 2018-2020  InColors that is due to leave us at the end of May. The Perfectly Paired set was made to complement the Ornate Frames dies. And so, that was a “must have” for this card as well.  The design is simple. The DSP, Pressed Petals does all the work. The coordinating colors for this paper listed Night of Navy and Mossy Meadow. But I wanted to brighten it up a bit using Blueberry Bushel and Old Olive. I think those colors work great with this paper!

Stampin’ Tip: Sometimes the best way to start a card design is to find the sentiment you want to use and design around that. Many Stampin’ Up! sentiments fir perfectly in a die cut, punch or frame. Combined with some beautiful DSP and a ribbon, you can make a card in no time!
