Creating a Thinking of You Card for All Ages Using Hearts & Hugs Bundle
May 28, 2024
Today we're Creating a Thinking of You Card for All Ages Using Hearts & Hugs Bundle. With so many new stamp sets in the Stampin' Up! new Annual Catalog it's tough to pick just one to begin our creating experience in paper crafting!
Today's bundle is the new Hearts & Hugs set...
These are the coordinating dies...
This is the card that wlil be good for any age...guys or the ladies..
& a bit closer...
This is one of those super cute sets with a mouse, walrus, gerbils, & XXXXX--it's great for guys, gals, kids, & teens! A really good one to have in your stash.
The background here is the Painted Texture embossing folder....gives some texture but doesn't overpower your focal point which is relatively small on this card.
Now if we are sending this to a guy we may want to substitute another color for the Pretty in Pink--so we could go with Daffodil Delight or Coastal Cabana for a more male appeal.
The verse can be switched out with any of the other verses in this stamp set t0 fit your occasion--just measure the sentiment and cut the white cardstock to fit. Another technique for this is to stamp the sentiment on white cardstock then cut out with your Paper Snips--you can even cut out the words separately or in phrases with rough cuts (not precise rectangles) and postion them randomly to give it a less formal appearanced.
I'll give you step by step directions for today's project below followed by the supply list.
