An Easy Card For a Special Day

A Card For a Special Day

If you need an easy card for a special day for someone, this might be it!  It’s a monochromatic card, all in Petal Pink. I think it looks pretty elegant for a special occasion, like a birthday, graduation, wedding, or anniversary, yet with the Big Shot, it is very easy to make!

The greeting is stamped and then die cut with one of the Stitched Labels Framelits Dies.  The greeting is stamped from the Stitched All Around Stamp SetYou can even buy the dies and stamps together in a Stitched All Around Bundle.  I love the phrase and the pretty font.  The die cut piece is beautiful too!

But let’s talk about that embossed background!!  Is it beautiful or is it beautiful??!  It’s the Tufted Dynamic Textured Impressions Embossing FolderThis is a new embossing folder in the new Stampin’ Up! Catalog. It’s one of the heavy duty ones that really creates a deep impression in the cardstock.  It’s recommended that you just lightly spritz the paper with water before embossing to loosen up the paper fibers.  This will make a wonderful background for many cards!

To finish off this card, I added some Petal Pink ribbon from the Metallic Ribbon Combo Pack underneath the greeting.  And for just a little bit more fanciness, I added a few matching pearls from the Share What You Love Artisan Pearls.

So stamp a greeting, die cut with the Big Shot, emboss the card front layer and add some ribbon and pearls for embellishments.  That’s as easy as it gets making a very easy card for a special day, for a special someone, with Stampin’ Up! products!
