This was my design for a recent card swap with several of my friends. We also made it in my Craft Box class this past Friday.
Thanks to Patty Bennett (https://pattystamps.com/2024/05/super-easy-cards-from-6x6-thoughtful-journey-paper.html) for sharing this idea!
One of the things I like best about this card is that it uses all but a 3/4" x 3/4" square of 6" x 6" double-sided patterned paper! Perfect for some serious stash-busting!!!
Materials:
* Thoughtful Journey 6” x 6” DSP
* Lost Lagoon, Peach Pie, Petunia Pop & White Card Stock
* Rhinestone Basic Jewels
* Scalloped Wishes Stamp Set (inside)
(All materials are current Stampin’ Up! products except the “Celebrate” stamp which I borrowed from a friend at a recent crafter’s retreat.)
Assembly:
* Cut color card stock to measure 5-1/2” x 4-1/4”
* Cut 3/4" strip from bottom of DSP. DO NOT DISCARD.
* Score 2” from left side of DSP and fold with “pretty” side inside fold. Adhere to 5-1/2” x 4-1/4” card stock.
* Cut 3/4" off one end of 3/4" strip. Rip paper away from one long edge and adhere to card front at folded edge.
* Cut white card stock to measure 5” x 1-3/4”. Stamp sentiment and adhere 1/8” from inside fold.
* Cut white label to any size you want for front sentiment (the one on my card is 2-3/4” x 3/4"). Cut card stock 1/4" larger to mat sentiment (mine is 3” x 1”). Stamp sentiment and adhere to card stock. Adhere to front flap with form tape or hexagons.
* Add rhinestones wherever you like.
These are a few alternate colorways using the same patterned paper:
