The Floral Frames Framelits from Stampin’ Up! rank at the top of my favorite framelits.  When it debuted the framelits in January 2012, Stampin’ Up! also developed rubber stamps that coordinated with the framelits.  The Floral Frames Framelits have a coordinating stamp set; however, my card share today does not feature that stamp set.  It features the Floral Frames Framelits. 

I’ve heard a lot of stampers express their displeasure with one of Stampin’ Up!’s new “In Colors” called Summer Starfruit.  I think it is a cool color and if you combine it with the right color(s), it looks great.  I think this card looks great with the Summer Starfruit Card Stock and Primrose Petals Card Stock, which is also a new In Color.

Below are the Stampin’ Up! Supplies used for this card as well as the instructions.
