One of my wonderful friends is a serious flower lover. She has a gorgeous garden all around her house. It being her birthday I had to make a floral birthday card. The new violet suite was the perfect thing to use.

The Bundle

This beautiful violet card was created using products from the Violet Dreams Suite Collection. I did not use every product, just several. First is the Stamp Set. I stamped and colored the violet sprig. It is a perfect size for a focal layer as I used it. I stamped with Basic Gray Ink and then colored with Stampin Blends in Peaceful Pine, Highland Heather, and Hydrangea Hue. I used Peaceful Pine Ink for the sentiment as it was surrounded by the purples where it is located.

The Die set part of the Bundle is next. There are Dies for the sprig as well as those little violet flowers I scattered around the focal layer. Then there is the layering for the sentiment. This is two individual oval Dies that layer perfectly, but could also be used separately. That is a nice extra.

Papers

The continuation of the Suite is the gorgeous DSP. This is the Violet Dreams Designer Series Paper. These sheets are all beautiful with different violet patterns. And the reverse sides are coordinating colors that are just as wonderful.

To make the card of course I pulled the cardstock colors from the DSP. The card base is Gorgeous Grape cut 5 1/2 X 8 1/2 with a layer of Peaceful Pine that measures 5 1/4 X 4. Then comes the gorgeous DSP which is cut to 5 X 3 3/4. I tend to have less edging but wanted each of these colors to stand out a little more today. And for the focal layer I chose the Highland Heather for the scalloped oval with Basic White as the inner oval. The Highland Heather scalloped oval is a nice compliment to the darker Gorgeous Grape of the card base. Of course the small violet florets are Highland Heather also. It is so easy when all you have to do is Die cut and you have a gorgeous flower!

Extras

There is only one Extra for today. Since my friend is a mega gardner, I looked for something to compliment that theme. Of course there would be butterflies. So out came the 2026-2028 In Color Butterflies in Hydrangea Hue. This is the color of the background to the DSP. It is more of a stamped off shade however. Having the butterlies pop a little more was perfect to me. So I used a trio of them to flutter around.
