Today’s simple & pretty Thinking of You card is sure to bring an instant smile! As card makers, we have the wonderful ability to brighten someone’s day just by doing what we love and sharing it.
I love hearing from you! Please leave me your questions or comments about the project for today.
STAMPIN’ PRETTY TIPS:
- It’s hip to be square! The Whisper White card base is 5″ x 5″.
- The Whisper White frame measures 3 1/2″ x 3 1/2″. A polka-dot pattern from the 2015-1017 In-Color Designer Series Paper Stack in Watermelon Wonder is cut at 3 3/8″ square.
- The flower and leaves were cropped using Stylish Stems Framelits Dies. They coordinate with the Special Reason stamp set and are offered as a bundle for 10% savings. Get “enabled” when watching this Stampin’ Up! video demonstration using the Stylish Stems Framelits Dies and Special Reason Stamp Set.
- A piece of Cucumber Crush Thick Bakers Twine adds a splashy accent.
- Don’t miss out…remember these yummy colors will be retiring, but you can stock up now. Learn more about the retiring In Colors from my “If You Love Them, Get Them Now” post here.

- The Thinking of You sentiment from Thoughts & Prayers stamp set is heat embossed in white embossing powder.
- Creating custom size envelopes for a square card is a snap using the Stampin’ Up! Envelope Punch Board. Designer Series Paper added to envelope flap adds more customization and cheer!
