Simple Saturday Thank You Cards

Create a simple thank you card using Stampin' Up! Dragonfly Dreams & Whole Lot of Lovely - StampinUp Idea

I created a pair of simple thank you cards today that show the WOW! of Stampin’ Up! designer series paper. 

I love hearing from you!  Please leave me your questions or comments about the project for today.


Both the Whole Lot of Lovely and Coffee Break Designer Series Paper patterns used are part of the BUY 3 GET 1 FREE SALE.  Details and selections here

It’s a perfect time to stock up on select designer series paper collections!  Sale ends Oct. 31.

STAMPIN’ PRETTY TIPS:

  • My first thank you card and envelope flap use a stunning floral pattern from Whole Lot of Lovely Designer Series Paper (on the list of My Favorite Things from the annual catalog) and part of the sale!  The result is decidedly feminine.

  • The second thank you card and envelope get a modern, unisex style from Coffee Break Designer Series Paper (also on the list of My Favorite Things from the annual catalog and part of the sale).

  • Both cards use sentiments from Stampin’ Up! Dragonfly Dreams Photopolymer Stamp Set.  I love how the interior comes to life with a coordinating sentiment.

  • Each sentiment gets a pop of color from Subtles (Calypso Coral) and Regals (Garden Green) Enamel Shapes.

  • An additional piece of designer series paper is added to the Whisper White Medium Envelope Flaps and snipped with Paper Snips to fit.
  • Measurements are the same for both cards.  From bottom to top. Card base is 4 1/4″ x 5 1/2″. Whisper White 4″ x 5 1/4″.  Layer below the pattern is 3 1/4″ x 4 1/2″. Patterned paper measures 3″ x 4 1/4″.  Sentiment is approx. 1″ x 3 1/2″.

  1. These cards are such a great idea. One could use absolutely any DSP …even retired designs one may have around the house…for the front pattern. Also, i just want to add….I love your blog…and your videos. I have my own demonstrator but so look forward to going to your site. Bless you Mary.

  6. I love that designer series paper, but I haven’t had a chance to use it yet. I like how you did this. With such a complex pattern, you minimized it just enough to simplify the design. Good job, Mary – like always!

    • Keeping the sentiment simple allows you to play with some of the stronger patterns! I appreciate your feedback!

  7. Wonderful cards! I agree with the previous comment…just a little dsp change makes the card completely different. The first dsp you used is gorgeous! I would like the dimensions, too, please. Have a great weekend!

    • Happy to share the dimensions. They are the same for both cards. From bottom to top. Card base is 4 1/4″ x 5 1/2″. Whisper White 4″ x 5 1/4″, Layer below the pattern is 3 1/4″ x 4 1/2″. Patterned paper measures 3″ x 4 1/4″. Sentiment is approx. 1″ x 3 1/2″. I don’t have the cards to measure and be exact (sent to friends). However, this should be close 🙂
