One of the prettiest products in the Occasions Catalog this spring is the Petal Passion Suite with which I made this Petal Passion Black and White All-Occasion Card.  I have seen so many beautiful cards made with the products in this suite!  It all has that watercolored look, so popular right now!

I had actually already colored this flower on one of the patterns from the Petal Passion Designer Series Paper awhile back.  I used the Stampin’ Blends markers, which unfortunately are not available right now, but hopefully will return maybe in June. You don’t have to have those markers to duplicate this card, though, just use another coloring technique such as the Watercolor Pencils, ink pad and Sponge Daubers, ink refills and Aqua Painter.  You can read the post about my coloring therapy with this paper HERE.

When I saw in my package of Petal Passion papers that I had already colored this flower, I just cut it out and cut the leaves off separately. I chose the white polka dot paper in the collection as the top card layer and layered it on Rich Razzleberry Cardstock since that was what color I had made the flower.

I adhered the flower to the cardfront with Stampin’ Dimensionals to pop it up a little bit and adhered the leaves just flat to the card with Snail Adhesive. For a little pizzazz I found a small  gold doily in the package of Metallic Foil Doilies and cut it in half. Then I adhered each half behind the two sides of the flower.

The greeting is from the Petal Palette Stamp Set.  I think it is such a sweet saying.  It is stamped and then die cut with the Stitched Shapes Framelits Dies and layered on a larger scalloped Layering Oval Die. You could put almost any greeting on this card.  It would suit a lot of occasions.

You will love the stamp set and designer paper in the Petal Passion Suite, not to mention the Petals & More Thinlits Dies.  I always forget about these dies for some reason! Order the products you want from this Suite in the Stampin’ Up! Online Store and make some cards like this Petal Passion Black and White All-Occasion Card.
