Embossed Countryside Inn Thank You Card

This Embossed Countryside Inn Thank You Card is an easy one to make! Just let the beautiful pattern of the designer series paper do all the work! Just add a greeting and maybe a bit of ribbon. But there was something extra-special that I don’t think I knew before! The embossing folder matches the paper so you can easily emboss the whole card front!

The card base is Balmy Blue and then there is a layer of this pattern in the Countryside Inn Designer Series Paper. I didn’t know I would like this paper as much as I do! I have used it a lot! If you have the Countryside Blossoms Embossing Folder, which embosses a beautiful design on any cardstock, use this one designer paper in the embossing folder because it matches up!! I had the paper upside down at first and nearly had it matched up but not quite! But I finally got it when I realized I had to turn it the other way! You have to kind of play around with cutting out the piece of designer paper that you want to emboss so that you get the piece that matches and that fit in the folder. But it’s not too difficult. If you look closely at the photo below you may be able to see the embossing of the flowers and little leaves.

The Countryside Blossoms folder adds a nice texture to the front of the card when you use it with this designer paper. The paper is pretty enough on its own, of course, but if you want a little extra something, emboss it!

Before adhering the paper to the card base, tie a piece of ribbon around it in a bow, if you want. My best choice was this retired 1/4″ Whisper White Crinkled Seam Binding Ribbon because I wanted something to embellish the card but not be really conspicuous.

For the greeting, I stamped this one from the Sending Smiles Stamp Set in Balmy Blue ink. I wanted something small and narrow to fit at the bottom of the card front so using this stamp set and greeting was perfect. Overall, I wanted the designer paper to be the whole focus of the card.

Here is another card using this same pattern of the Countryside Inn Designer Series Paper. You can make so many lovely cards with this pretty paper!
