Hello, it’s Kari here today with a set of cards to share. I am using the new Layering Pansies stamp set, which creates the most beautiful stamped pansies!

Today I have a video showing you how to use this set, watch it below or in HD on YouTube:

Once I stamped out my pansies with a variety of colors, I inked on the backgrounds. For 2 of the cards, I used stencils with a light purple ink; and for the other 2 I stamped one of the layers from the Pansy stamp set in Fog ink and Scattered Straw Distress Oxide.

I then took the sentiments from the Floating on Dreams stamp set and used a different one for each of these four cards.

The mat for these cards is a dark purple cardstock…it looks so dark here, but it’s purple (Scottish Thistle or Sugar Plum cardstock would work well).

Then I tied them together with some Metallic envelopes (these are GORGEOUS envelopes!) to give as a gift. I have to admit, the pansies turned out to be my favorites and I might have added some gems, too! I can’t resist a bit of sparkle on my cards. 🙂

I’ve put together a list of supplies here for you. If you use these links to purchase any product, I may receive a small commission at no extra cost to you. Thank you for your support!






I hope you’ve enjoyed this project! I’ll be back soon with more cards to share!
