Do you struggle with color choices when creating your projects? Color can make such an impact on the feel of your project.
Today I am sharing a simple layout I created with the Peaceful Poppies Designer Series Paper in a Basic Black as well as a Whisper White card base. I love a simple black or white card as this allows a nice pop of color to really make an impact.
Which one do you prefer?

For each of the color choices I wanted to keep this very simple and really let the gorgeous designer paper be the star.
Basic Black Card Layers:
- 5-1/2″ x 8-1/2″ (folded in half) Basic Black cardstock
- 7/8″ x 5″ Basic Black cardstock
- 1-3/4″ x 5″ Basic Black cardstock
- 1-1/2″ x 5″ DSP
- 4″ x 5-1/4″ Whisper White cardstock (inside)

Whisper White Card Layers:
- 5-1/2″ x 8-1/2″ (folded in half) Thick White cardstock
- 7/8″ x 5″ Thick White cardstock
- 1-3/4″ x 5″ Thick White cardstock
- 1-1/2″ x 5″ DSP
Do you love the special touch created with the Stitched labels dies along the inside edges of the cardstock?

The Peaceful Poppies Designer Series Paper features hand-painted blooms and watercolor washes that make beautiful backgrounds or focal points for cards, scrapbook pages, and other paper crafts. Patterns include floral prints, stripes, polka dots, and more. Love this paper!
