Stampin’ Up! Thoughtful Journey

Stampin’ Up! Thoughtful Journey

I am sharing a very easy and simple fun fold today.  I used Stampin’ Up! Thoughtful Wishes, Layering Leaves, and Sketched Butterflies Stamp Sets.  Also used was Thoughtful Journey Designer Series Paper.

These are the card cut you will need to create this card.

  • Pretty Peacock cardstock
    • card base — 5-1/2″ x 8-1/2″  scored at 4-1/4″
    • little card  — 3″ x 8-1/2″ scored at 4-1/4″
  • Basic White cardstock
    • art piece card front — 2-3/4″ x 4″
    • inside piece little card — 2-3/4″ x 4″
    • inside piece card base — 4″ x 5-1/4″
  • Thoughtful Journey Designer Series Paper
    • card front little card — 2-3/4″ x 4″
    • inside — scrap

These are the challenges I am entering for this card.

Pammie’s Inky Pinkies Challenge  

Creative Creases Challenge  

Seize The Birthday Challenge with the option of adding a cute critter.  I am doing the “Anything Goes” as I do not have a critter on my card.

  1. Color a flower image from Stampin’ Up! Thoughtful Wishes Stamp Set using Stampin’ Write Markers, I used Pretty Peacock and Wild Wheat.  Give the image a huff of breath after coloring to moisten it so it will stamp well.
  2. Stamp the colored image on one of the 2-3/4″ x 4″ pieces of Basic White cardstock, leaving space at the top for a greeting.
  3. Stamp a greeting in Pretty Peacock ink using a stamp from Stampin’ Up! Layering Leaves Stamp Set.
  4. Use the splash of dots stamp from Stampin’ Up! Layering Leaves Stamp Set to stamp dots in Wild Wheat ink around the flower.
  5. Adhere to the left side of your card base front leaving a border around the edges.
  6. On the other piece of Basic White cardstock, stamp in Pretty Peacock ink a sentiment from Stampin’ Up! Layering Leaves Stamp Set.
  7. Stamp in Pretty Peacock ink in the lower right corner, a flower image from Stampin’ Up! Layering Leaves Stamp Set.
  8. Adhere the Basic White piece to the inside of the little card using adhesive of choice.
  9. Adhere the Thoughtful Journey Designer Series piece to the little card front.
  10. Adhere the little card to the right side of the card front making sure edges are even.  The left edge may extend over the Basic White piece just a bit but this is fine.
  11. Adhere dots from Glossy Dot Assortment.
  12. Stamp in Pretty Peacock ink, a sentiment from Stampin’ Up! Sketched Butterflies Stamp Set on the Basic White piece for the inside of the card.
  13. Using left-over scraps from Thoughtful Journey Designer Series Paper adhere to the left side of the inside Basic White panel.
  14. Adhere three of the dots from the Glossy Dot Assortment on the left side in the little white space at the top of the Thoughtful Journey Designer Series Paper.

A Basic White envelope gets a piece of Thoughtful Journey Designer Series Paper adhered to the envelope flap using Multipurpose Glue or adhesive of choice.  My card is a CAS of a card Sharon Armstrong created, but I had to make it mine so I added to it.

I am happy you stop  by today.  I hope you take the time to linger and look at my other blog posts 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 wilbe 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!
