I like the blue added with the peaches for this paper and card from the You’re a Peach designer series paper from Stampin’ Up. It is a pretty easy card as it is mainly cutting some paper and just stamp a few greetings.
To create this card, you just need a few things:
- White card stock
- You’re a Peach designer series paper (retired Stampin’ Up)
- Sweet as a Peach stamp set
- Balmy Blue or Marina Mist stamped off ink (retired Stampin’ Up)
- Circle die
- Artistry Bloom Adhesive-Backed Sequins
- Scoring board or paper trimmer scoring blade
- Paper trimmer
- Scissors
- Adhesive of choice
With your white cards stock cut a card base to 5 ½” x 8 ½” and score at 1 ¼” and 4 ¼” and fold both up to form your card base. From the You’re a Peach designer series paper find the blue stripe piece and the blue with peaches piece. From the blue with peaches piece, cut two pieces to 3” x 5 ½”. From the blue stripes piece cut two pieces 1 ¼” x 5 ½”.
From a spare piece of the blue with peaches paper and a pair of scissors cut two of the peaches with leaves out, or you can also choose to stamp them and die cut them out. From a spare piece of white card stock cut a 2 5/8” circle.
Take your white card base and your two blue stripe pieces and adhere one to the right edge of the inside of your card and the other to the 1 ¼” flap on the front of your card, which when closed forms 2 ½” of stripes on the right side of your card. Take one of the blue with peaches pieces and adhere to the left side of the front of your card going under the blue stripe flap. Adhere the other to the inside left of your card.
Find your blue ink which is listed as Balmy Blue, but I didn’t have that so I used Marina Mist and stamped off to lighten it. Take your circle and your blue ink and stamp the “Have a Peachy day” from the Sweet as a Peach stamp set to the lower right side of the circle. Adhere your two cut out peaches to the left side of the circle around your greeting. Then use three of the orange sequins from the Artistry Bloom Adhesive-Backed Sequins around the blank area. Adhere to the front of your blue stripe front flap. Use some of the blue sequins from the Artistry Bloom Adhesive-Backed Sequins randomly on the blue stripes.
Use your “To a sweet friend” greeting stamp from Sweet as a Peach stamp set and your blue ink and stamp on the upper white portion of the inside of your card.
This gives you an adorable card to let a friend know you care.
