  • On the inside, stamp the flower image in the top left corner with Gorgeous Grape ink.
  • With a Blender Pen, rub around the inside of each little flower to draw the purple hue into the flower centers. Clean it off, then touch the Blender Pen into some Old Olive ink that you have put on a clear acrylic block and dot the leaves with it to add some color.

This is a great Thinking of You card for someone who is sheltering in and could use some “happy mail.” It sounds like we will be s-i-p for a bit longer, so all the more reason to let someone know the you are wishing them the best!

Ready To Order?

Perennial Essence is on the Last Chance Product List. Get it while you can! After June 2, it won’t be available to order. And there is a good chance it will sell out before that date. Fortunately, Ornate Style, Stitched So Sweetly, and Inspiring Iris will be in the catalog for another year. That is great news!

  1. Beautiful color combination. I’ve had my eye on this set and might just follow through with purchasing it!

  2. Very Pretty

  3. So very pretty. Great use of that paper!

    So pretty. I had it on my order but I removed it thinking I could do without. I still have my shares so that would be enough to make a couple cards of each.

  5. Your card is a perfect justification to grab another pack of this wonderful paper before it goes. Thanks for the inspiration.
