True Blue Floral Kindness Card

No Comments

I love the symmetry of this card and the color blends with the True Blue Floral designer series paper from Stampin’ Up.  I used the Mixed Labels stamps and dies to finish it off. 

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

  • Balmy Blue card stock (Stampin’ Up)
  • Night of Navy card stock (Stampin’ Up)
  • White card stock
  • True Blue Floral designer series paper (December 2025 Product of the Month Stampin’ Up)
  • Mixed Labels stamp set and dies (Stampin’ Up)
  • Night of Navy ink (Stampin’ Up)
  • Paper trimmer
  • Adhesive of choice
  • Pop dots

From a piece of Balmy Blue card stock cut a card base t 5 ½” x 8 ½” and fold in half to 4 ¼” x 5 ½”.  With your Night of Navy card stock cut two pieces to 4 1/8” x 5 3/8” and one to 3 1/8” x 3 1/8”.  Take the True Blue Floral designer series paper pack and find the large floral piece with the Balmy Blue background, and the white and navy leaves with Balmy Blue background.  From the large floral piece cut a piece to 4” x 5 ¼” and a second to 1 ½” x 4” and from the leaf paper cut a piece to 3” x 3”. 

Adhere your 3” x 3” leaf paper onto the 3 1/8” x 3 1/8” Night of Navy piece and then cut diagonally (watching direction of your paper) into two triangles.  Adhere one of your 4 1/8” x 5 3/8” pieces to the front of your card base and then the large rose piece to the front of that.  Now adhere each triangle along the outside right and left edges, centered from top to bottom, the tips will cross slightly in the middle. 

With the “your kindness made my day” greeting from the Mixed Labels stamps and stamp on a piece of scrap white card stock in Night of Navy ink.  Use the larger size label die with the decorative edge to cut out your stamped greeting.  Adhere to the front center with pop dots to raise up slightly. 

For the inside adhere your last piece of Night of Navy paper and then the white piece of card stock.  Adhere the large floral strip to your white inside piece leaving about 1/8” of white showing to the left side.  Then take the “thank you” greeting from the Mixed Labels stamps and stamp centered on the upper white area in Night of Navy ink. 

What an adorable way to say thank you to someone for their kindness.
