Framed Violets Basic Card

This idea comes from Amy Koenders. She always makes such good use of all products in a Suite. This one is no exception! In addition to the Framed Violets coordinating stamps, dies, and DSP, she has also used the Shimmering Stripes Specialty paper and Adhesive-Baked Blooms, as well as the Fern Embossing Folder and Fern & Flora Dies! Makes for a neat card!

Measurements:

Fresh Freesia: 1/2 sheet, 3 1/4" x 4 3/8"
Basic White: 2 pcs @ 4" x 5 1/4", 1/4 sheet (stamped images), scraps
Peaceful Pine (N): scraps
Violet Dreams (N) (OE): 1 1/2" x 5 1/4" (Peaceful Pine print)
