Another Perennial Birthday

#stampinup   #faithfulinkspirations   Today's card is another that we made at the Proverbial Stampers new catalog get together. It uses the "Perennial Birthday" stamp set that coordinates with the beautiful Perennial Birthday Project Kit on page 16 of the Occasions catalog. I'm really loving this stamp set paired with the Petal Passion Designer Series Paper. I think these black and white cards are simply stunning!

We started with a half sheet of Whisper White Card stock, scored at 4-1/4". We cut 2-1/8" off the top flap, just for a different look. We adhered a 5-1/4" by 2" strip of Petal Passion DSP to the top of the card and added a sweet bow made from the new 1/4" Whisper White Organza Ribbon. We stamped a sentiment from the "Perennial Birthday" stamp set in Basic Black Archival Ink on the bottom half of the card, along with some flowers, done in generation stamping, that is, we stamped the flower three times without reinking between. Then we adhered this to a half sheet of Basic Black Card Stock.
Easy-peasy, right? And so elegant. I like the variety of folds we used for this set of cards. Stay tuned tomorrow and Friday for two others.
