This floral paper from the Beautiful Gallery designer series paper from Stampin’ Up made a lovely sympathy card for when it is needed. This tent style card is the perfect design for this paper.
To create this card, you just need a few things:
- Basic Beige card stock (Stampin’ Up)
- Mossy Meadow card stock (Stampin’ Up)
- Beautiful Gallery designer series paper (2025 Annual Catalog Stampin’ Up)
- Lasting Lily stamp set (Retired Stampin’ Up)
- Mossy Meadow ink (Stampin’ Up)
- Paper trimmer
- Score board or scoring blade for paper trimmer
- Adhesive of choice
From your Basic Beige card stock cut a piece to 4 ¼” x 5 ½ for the card base. Cut a piece to 3 ½” x 4 ½” and score at 4 ¼”. Cut another piece for the greeting label to 7/8” x 3 1/8” and for the inside cut a piece to 2 5/8” x 3 ½”. Then from Mossy Meadow card stock cut two pieces to 3 3/8” x 4 ¼” and two pieces to 7/8” x 4 ¼” and one for the label to 1” x 3 3/8”. Find the white rose floral paper from the Beautiful Gallery designer series paper pack, cut about ¼” off of the top to get rid of the box outline. Then cut the bottom off at 4 ¼” and trim about ¼” off of each side to get rid to the box outline. Cut two pieces to ¾” and a third to 3 ¼” x 4 ¼”.
Take the to pieces of Basic Beige you cut for you card base, the 4 ¼” x 5 ½” piece is the bottom and then the 3 ½” x 4 ½” scored piece fold the ¼” score down. Find the two Mossy Meadow 7/8” x 4 ¼” pieces and adhere one to each side of the card base with an edge on the outside of about 1/16”. Then adhere the center piece by adhering the 1/4″ part to the back of the card in the center between your two Mossy Meadow pieces. Adhere to two ¾” x 4 ¼” strips of floral to each side onto the Mossy Meadow. Then adhere your 3 3/8” x 4 ¼” piece of Mossy Meadow to the front of your center panel and then the floral piece to the center of that.
Now take the label piece of Mossy Meadow and adhere across your front center panel toward the bottom, up about ¼”. Then take your label piece of Basic Beige, your Mossy Meadow ink and the “With Sympathy” greeting stamp and stamp on your label. Adhere your Basic Beige label over the Mossy Meadow label piece.
For the inside adhere your piece of Mossy Meadow and then the piece of Basic Beige. With the “Our thoughts are with you” greeting stamp and the Mossy Meadow ink and stamp on the upper center of the Basic Beige piece.
This card just fell together and while I wasn’t a great fan of the paper, I love it on this card, I think it is just a beautiful sympathy card.
