Make This Easy Sympathy Card with Wildly Flowering DSP

Create a sympathy card using the Wildly Flowering Designer Series Paper from Stampin' Up! Card by Mary Fish, Stampin' Pretty - Free Tutorial

The hallmark of this easy sympathy card is the Stampin’ Up! Wildly Flowering Designer Series Paper (DSP). I simply cut a 3 x 4 1/2 rectangle into 1” strips to create a screen design. The Comforting Thoughts stamp set is a “must have” for all those occasions where someone could use cheering up (including sympathy cards). It’s available exclusively on-line and on the list of My Favorite Things.

how to make this simple card:

Burnish the fold of the Basic White Thick card base with a Bone Folder.

Adhere the left and right strips 1/8″ inch from the edges of the Crumb Cake layer with Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

Wrap the Misty Moonlight Designer Series Paper layer with the Crumb Cake Baker’s Twine, securing on the left with a bow.

Use a Mini MISTI stamp tool to stamp the sentiment (Comforting Thoughts stamp set) in Misty Moonlight Classic Ink onto the left-center of the Basic White layer.

Crop the sentiment with the Modern Oval Punch.

Adhere to the card as shown with Stampin’ Dimensionals.

POP OF PERSONALITY! Embellish the sentiment with 3 Antique Brass Textured Dots.

PERFECT POLISH! Adhere the 5 3/4 x 2 1/2 Designer Series Paper to the Basic White Medium envelope flap with Multipurpose Liquid Glue. PRETTY TIP! Add glue to the flap. Flip to the inside of the flap and carefully snip away the excess with Paper Snips. Watch my 1 Minute to WOW Video Tutorial to learn how here.
