Good Wednesday morning my stamping friends. How is everyone doing today? We’re halfway through the week and on our way to the weekend. We’re also a little bit closer to spring!!

I have a pretty simple card for you today using the beautiful Sale-a-bration Designer Series Paper. Here’s my card for today.

I used the Sale-a-bration Daffodil Afternoon Designer Series Paper along with the Amazing Thanks Dies for my card today.

My design in from Sunday Stamps Sketch Challenge #276. I love cards that are off set like this, and it pushes me outside of my comfort zone. I’m a straight on symmetrical kind of person.

I started by embossing a Very Vanilla card front using the Gingham Embossing Folder and adhered it to a Very Vanilla Thick card base.

I cut 2 panels of Daffodil Afternoon DSP using my Stitched Rectangle Dies. I adhered the 2 panels together on an angle using Stampin’ Seal then adhered them to the card front using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

Using my Amazing Thanks Dies I cut the solid thanks from a panel of Flirty Flamingo cardstock and the detailed thanks from a panel of Mossy Meadow cardstock. I adhered the 2 die cuts together using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I adhered a piece of the White 3/4″ Frayed Ribbon to the card front using a little Stampin’ Seal to hold it in place. I adhered the sentiment over the ribbon using Stampin’ Dimensionals on the top of the die cut only. I added a few Crushed Curry Playing with Patterns Resin Dots to the card front.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Sale-a-bration Special Moments Photopolymer Stamp Set in Mossy Meadow Ink on a Very Vanilla panel. I adhered a strip of the Daffodil Afternoon DSP to the bottom of the panel. I adhered the Very Vanilla panel to a Very Vanilla mat and then to the inside of the Very Vanilla Thick card base.

To complete my card, I decorated a Very Vanilla Medium Envelope. I adhered a strip of the Daffodil Afternoon DSP to the envelope front and a panel to the envelope flap.

Thank you for stopping by my blog today. I hope you liked my card and will give it a try. Happy stamping!!
