The Delicate Dreams floral designer series papers from Stampin’ Up are so pretty and cheerful. This is a really plain and simple card but turned out just like I had it in my head, which doesn’t happen most of the time. I really liked the darkness of the Secret Sea paper and the Gray Granite to pull the colors from this floral paper.
To create this card, you just need a few things:
- Secret Sea card stock (2025-27 In Color Stampin’ Up)
- Gray Granite card stock (Stampin’ Up)
- Delicate Dreams designer series paper (March 2026 Online Exclusive Stampin’ Up)
- Delicate Whisters stamp set (March 2026 Online Exclusive Stampin’ Up)
- Charming Day stamp set (July 2025 Online Exclusive Stampin’ Up)
- Circle Dies
- Secret Sea ink (2025-27 In Color Stampin’ Up)
- Variegated Trim ribbon (March 2026 Online Exclusive Stampin’ Up)
- Paper trimmer
- Adhesive of choice
- Pop dots
From your Secret Sea card stock cut a card base to 5 ½” x 8 ½” and fold in half to 4 ¼” x 5 ½”. Cut a piece of Gray Granite for the inside to 4” x 5 ¼”. With your Delicate Dreams designer series paper find the piece of Gray Granite and the floral paper that has the Gray Granite flowers. From the Gray Granite dsp paper cut a piece to 4” x 5 ¼” and from the floral piece cut it to 3 7/8” x 5 1/8”. With a scrap piece of Secret Sea use a circle die about 2 ¾” and cut one. With the Gray Granite dsp or a scrap piece of Gray Granite card stock use the 2 3/8” circle die to cut out one.
Take the two circles you cut and adhere together. Take the “Thanks for being you” stamp from the Charming Day stamp set and Secret Sea ink and stamp evenly in an upper portion so you can trim the left and bottom.
Adhere your floral piece of paper to the Gray Granite dsp paper. Adhere a piece of the Variegated Trim ribbon about ¾” up from the bottom and adhere on the back of each side. Adhere your circle in the lower left corner and trim off the overhanging portion at the left side and bottom. Now adhere this to the front of your card base.
Take the Gray Granite piece of card stock you cut and stamp the “you made my day” greeting and your Secret Sea in and stamp in the upper center. Then use the floral sprig stamp going to the right and with your Secret Sea ink and stamp in the lower left corner. Adhere to the inside of the card.
What a pretty simple floral card to thank someone for doing something special for you.
