This week is all about the Painted Lavender bundle, which includes a set of lavender stamp images and coordinating dies. This bundle pairs beautifully with a whole host of products. And I hope to show you a number of ways that you can use this bundle as we explore various projects this week. Today we’re using a fun fold to combine the Perennial Lavender designer series paper with the Painted Lavender dies.
This cut and twist fun fold design, that I learned from fellow Stampin’ Up demonstrator Jackie Bolhuis over at Klompen Stampers, is super easy to execute and always a great way to showcase any number of terrific products — from designer paper to stamp bundles. You can find the PDF tutorial for the cut and twist fun fold over on my Tutorials page or by clicking this link.
Here, we start with a base of Blackberry Bliss cardstock. I chose three separate patterns of the Perennial Lavender designer paper for this card, working my way from largest to smallest pattern as you move left to right. A strip of Lost Lagoon crinkle ribbon serves to break up the busy lavender patterns on the left. The sentiment from the Perennial Postage stamp set is stamped on a Very Vanilla panel and matted with a vellum panel to soften the contrast between the patterned paper and sentiment panel. Both are diecut using the Thoughtful Expressions dies. The lavender stems layered behind the sentiment panel add some visual interest and are cut from Bubble Bath, Berry Burst, and Lost Lagoon cardstock.
Check out this week’s Terrific Tuesdays video for even more inspiration using the Painted Lavender stamps and dies.
