The simplest details combined can evolve into a beautiful thank you card. The frills (spiral notebook edging) and fronds for this card were created with the Gorgeously Made Dies. Eclectic but still clean!
WHAT I LOVE! What a yummy color combination! All three were part of the Stampin’ Up! Color Refresh and welcome additions to the line-up. Learn more about the Color Refresh here.
The clever combination of Fresh Freesia, Berry Burst, and Pretty Peacock was shared on my Tuesday post along with other color combos here.
