I have a set to show you today that includes 10 thank you notes for a friend.
Ever since I first saw the current Stampin’ Up catalog, I have been inspired by page 97. I knew that I wanted to use the palette there to make some cards. Well, it certainly took me a while but I finally got to do it. I made 4 1/4″ square cards and used a version of the box I created here. I did make the box a bit deeper to accomodate more cards. The colors I chose were Crumb Cake, Early Espresso and Perfect Plum. What a pretty combination. I’m sure you can see the influence of the catalog page! The images were colored using a Blender Pen mixing Crumb Cake, Soft Suede, Early Espresso and Perfect Plum ink. I love how calm this feels!
Inside I designed two styles of cards and added the Inspired by Nature flower with the same colors. To help balance the box, I put the button on opposite sides. The sentiment comes from the ever-useful Teeny Tiny Wishes.
I’m glad you were able to drop in today. I’ll be back tomorrow with another ColorLab Challenge…you are going to love the colors!! Hope you have a great day!

Beautiful project. I imagine it would make a wonderful gift for someone. And you used a color I always have trouble with – purple! Thanks for the inspiration 🙂
Super cute cards and a great box! What a fabulous gift!
These are lovely and you have inspired me. I think I will be working with Early Espresso, Crumb Cake, Old Olive and the Just Believe set.
Thanks for Sharing!!!
Beautiful! What a great gift!
Wow! These cards and the box are just gorgeous! Love the colors you chose.
These are wonderful! What a great gift for someone. Love these colors. I’m just the opposite of Adriana, I am a purple freak, so I have to work hard at NOT using purple all the time.
WOW are these beautiful! Love your color combo!
I love this set so much, and love what you have done with it! Great color combo, too.
Lovely!
