2026 Virtual Retreat Floral Thinking of You Card

I decided to play with some of the paper from the 2026 Virtual Retreat suite along with the Forever Florals stamps and dies that was included from Stampin’ Up. 

To create this card, you just need a few things:

  • Bubble Bath card stock (2024-2026 In Color Stampin’ Up)
  • White card stock
  • 2026 Virtual Retreat designer series paper (retired Stampin’ Up)
  • Forever Florals stamp set and dies (2026 Virtual Retreat Stampin’ Up)
  • Berry Burst ink (Stampin’ Up)
  • Scoring board or scoring blade for paper trimmer
  • Rainbow Adhesive-Backed Dots (retired Stampin’ Up)
  • Paper trimmer
  • Adhesive of choice

From a piece of white card stock cut a card base to 5 ½” x 7 ¼” and score at 3” and fold.  Cut another piece to 2 ¾” x 5 ¼” for the inside.  From the Bubble Bath card stock cut a piece to 2 7/8” x 5 3/8”.  From the 2026 Virtual Retreat designer series paper find the white and Bubble Bath grid paper and the floral paper.  From the grid paper cut a piece to 4 1/8” x 5 3/8” for the inside and from the floral a piece to 2 ¾” x 5 ¼”.

Adhere your floral piece to the Bubble Bath piece and then adhere that to the 3” front panel of your white card base. 

Take a spare piece of white card stock and stamp the “Thinking of you” greeting from the Forever Florals stamp set in Berry Burst ink.  Use the smaller label die to cut your greeting and the larger one to cut out a label from the Bubble Bath paper.  Adhere then together and adhere to the upper center of the front of your card, making sure you don’t put adhesive on the portion that will overhang.

For the inside of your card adhere the grid paper to the back panel of the inside of your card.  Adhere the white piece to the left side of the grid paper.  Stamp the You’re on my mind” and “and in my heart” greetings together in Berry Burst ink.  Place five of the Bubble Bath embellishments from the Rainbow Adhesive-Backed Dots around on the grid paper and label.

A beautiful card for a friend or relative to let them know how much you care and are thinking about them.

Wonderful World You’re On My Mind Card

This elegant card is made using Wonderful World designer series paper and the Wonderful World stamp set.  The colors are beautifully muted to make a lovely card to let someone know you are there for them. 

To create this card, you just need a few things:

  • Blushing Bride card stock (Retired Stampin’ Up)
  • White card stock
  • Wonderful World designer series paper (Retired Stampin’ Up)
  • Forever Floral stamp set and dies (Virtual Retreat 2026 Stamp and Dies Stampin’ Up)
  • Blushing Bride ink (Retired Stampin’ Up)
  • Pear Pizzazz ink (Retired Stampin’ Up)
  • Blushing Bride Stampin’ Blends (Retired Stampin’ Up)
  • Pear Pizzaz Stampin’ Blends (Retired Stampin’ Up)
  • Paper trimmer
  • Adhesive of choice

From a piece of Blushing Bride card stock cut a piece to 5 ½” x 8 ½” and fold in half to 4 ¼” x 5 ½” to form your card base.  With white card stock cut a piece to 2 ½” x 4” and another for the inside of your card to 4 1/8” x 5 3/8”.  In your Wonderful World designer series paper pack find the Blushing Bride rose paper and cut a piece to 3 ¼” 4”, making sure your roses are running in the right direction. 

Take the rose stamp from the Wonderful World stamp set and use your Stampin’ Write markers to color the flower in Blushing Bride and the stem and leaves in Pear Pizzazz, then huff (blow hot air) on your stamp to remoisten the ink and then stamp on the white piece measuring 2 ½” x 4” to the left side.  Now stamp the “You’re on my mind” greeting from the Forever Floral stamps in Pear Pizzazz ink to the right side.  Ink and stamp the same rose in the lower left corner of the large inside piece of white.  Stamp the “and in my heart” greeting in Pear Pizzazz in the upper center on the piece for the inside. 

Take your rose piece of designer series paper and align on your card base where you would like to adhere it.  Add some adhesive at the top and then take your white stamped piece and align accordingly over the adhesive.  Then cut a piece of ribbon about 5” long and wrap around the front of the card aligning with the bottom of the white upper portion of your card and adhering on the back on each end.  Then adhere the whole piece to the front of your card base. 

Adhere the larger white piece to the inside of your card. 

What a beautiful card to give to someone to let them know how much you care and are there for them.
