Stampin’ Up! Thoughtful Expressions — Thinking Of You
The card created today is a fun fold. I have previously made this card in other cardstock, but I just love the way it looks made in black. I used Stampin’ Up! Thoughtful Expressions stamp set and Dies, and Timber 3D Embossing Folder. You can follow this link to see all the instructions on how to create this card. It will show you all the pieces and all the card dimensions.
Challenges I am entering.
This is the way the card looks closed all the way. The hummingbird is an image from Stampin’ Up! Thoughtful Expressions stamp set. It is stamped in Memento Black ink, then colored using Granny Apple Green, Crumb Cake, Real Red, and Melon Mambo Stampin’ Blends. It is die cut using the hummingbird die from Thoughtful Expressions Dies. White sequins from Adhesive Backed Sequin Trio are popped around the card front.
This is the way the card looks when you first open.
This is the second opening. The sentiments is from a just retired stamp set, but you can use any sentiment you choose.
The 2-3/8″ x 12″ strip is scored at 4″ and 8″. Fold the right side in to the middle and the left over the right. Using adhesive of choice, I used Multipurpose Liquid Glue adhere the piece over the largest die. In this photo it is the Lemon Lime Twist label in the middle of the card. Front panel does not line up in middle of window, that is the way it is suppose to be. This sentiment is also one that comes from a recently retired stamp set, but again, you can use any sentiment from the stamp set of your choice.
This is the back panel of the card, in case you are wanting to write a message to the recipient.
A Basic White envelope gets a piece of Meandering Meadow Designer Series Paper adhered to the envelope flap using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.
Thank you for stopping by today. I hope you took the time to linger and look at my other blog post and cards and that you will join me on my stamping journey as I share my cards with you each day. My hope and wish are that you will be inspired to create amazing creations yourself. Feel free to CAS(E) any card. Any questions you may have, you know you can always contact me. Have a blessed day!
