Planted Paradise

Planted Paradise - extended view

Planted Paradise - detail view

Today's card is a modified z-fold. I wanted to use the Softly Stippled 12" x 12" DSP in the Sale-A-Bration offering...... so I paired it with the Planted Paradise stamp set that is in the January-April 2024 Mini catalog.

Planted Paradise has TONS of options to create potted plants. I'm excited to play with it some more.

I seldom use Calypso Coral... but did I ever love it with Pebbled Path and Wild Wheat!!

That Softly Stippled 12" x 12" DSP is one of the Free options with a $50 in my online store during Sale-A-Bration!
