The beautiful PANSY can be found in gardens around the world. The name comes from the French word pensee which translates to thought or remembrance. The products in our Pansy Petals SUITE (Pansy Patch stamp set, coordinating Pansy Petals Designer Series Paper, Pansy Dies and Bumblebee Trinkets) work together to create beautiful elements for cards, scrapbooks, and home décor. I hope the samples I’m sharing today inspire you to create something thoughtful for your friends and family.
