Framed Violet and Foiled Swiss Dots

 I saw a similar sample using the Impressions dies along with the Framed Violets dies. Of course, I added my own twist and added  gold foiled Swiss Dots on Secret Sea cardstock and the Shimmering Stripes DSP for the center of the label. This is actually a really clean & simple card!

  • Peaceful Pine (N): 4 1/8" x 5 3/8", scraps

  • Violet Dreams (N)(OE): 2 1/2" x 3 7/8" (Secret Sea print)
  • Shimmering Stripes DSP(N) (OE): 2" x 3" (inside label)
To Make this Card:

  • Also, add Violet DSP to the top of the card.
  • Adhere the Grape strip to the front, over the "seam".
  • Die cut label from Phrases & Frames Impressions die.  Then, go back and run it through, again, with the Impressions mat.
