A Couple of Handmade Cards with Stampin' Up!'s Painted Lavender Bundle

Did you catch my YouTube video last night?  In it, I shared how to create these two cards using a few supplies from the NEW 2024 Mini Stampin’ Up! Catalog AND the FREE Softly Sophisticated Bundle from Sale-a-bration.  

Of course, this is just an example of what you could order to receive a Sale-a-bration FREE with $100 Purchase item.  Any $100 purchase (before tax and shipping) will qualify you to get a Sale-a-bration FREE with $100 purchase item OR TWO Free with $50 purchase items.  There’s SO MANY great Sale-a-bration options this year!  It’s hard to choose.  

This first card was inspired by a card from the Mini Catalog, which can be found on p.20. I love this card, but don’t have the stamp set used in the catalog and thought it would be a perfect layout for Painted Lavender.   This is a quick and easy layout, which could be made even faster if you choose to just stamp the sentiment instead of Heat Embossing. 

Purple is my favorite color, so of course I decided to stick with the colors I used in the first card for this second one.  In fact, I also added another shade of purple, Highland Heather, to this one. This one is a tad more time consuming, but not too much and totally worth the extra little bit of time.  Did I mention butterflies are also my favorite?  There was never any doubt that I would be purchasing the entire Perennial Lavender Suite. 

Thank you for visiting my blog today. I hope one of these cards, or maybe the color combination, has inspired your creativity.

Happy Stamping!
