12 Days of Crafting Thinking of You Card

No Comments

All of the floral papers from the 12 Days of Crafting Advent Calendar (2025) designer series paper from Stampin’ Up is all so pretty, this one included with the blues and pinks.  The different embellishments that came with it as well as so much fun and used a few different ones for this card. 

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

  • Seaside Spray card stock (Retired Stampin’ Up)
  • White card stock
  • 12 Days of Crafting Advent Calendar designer series paper (2025 Stampin’ Up)
  • 12 Days of Crafting Advent Calendar stamp set (2025 Stampin’ Up)
  • Party Banner dies (2025 Stampin’ Up)
  • 12 Days of Crafting Advent Calendar Sequin Embellishments (2025 Stampin’ Up)
  • 12 Days of Crafting Advent Calendar Cutouts (2025 Stampin’ Up)
  • Seaside Spray ink (Retired Stampin’ Up)
  • Paper trimmer
  • Adhesive of choice
  • Mini Pop dots

From a piece of Seaside Spray card stock cut a card base to 5 ½” x 8 ½” and fold in half to 4 ¼” x 5 ½”.  From the 12 Days of Crafting designer series paper pack, find the pink paper and the pink and blue floral piece.  Cut the pink piece to 4 1/8” x 5 3/8” and the floral piece to 4” x 5 ¼”.  Adhere the floral piece to the pink piece and then to the front of your card base.  From white card stock cut a piece to 4” x 5 ¼” for the inside of the card.

From some scrap of the pink designer series paper use the Party Banner die measuring 2” wide and cut out.  Adhere this to the right side of your card, lined up off the under pink boarder.  From the pack of cutout find a few flowers and leaves and adhere to the left side of the pink banner using mini pop dots. 

With a piece of scrap white card stock and your Seaside Spray ink stamp the Thinking of You greeting.  Trim down the top and bottom and then angle the ends then adhere that to the lower right side of your banner, overlapping some of the flowers.  Now use some of the sequins adhering on with glue around your card.  I did two of the really small white ones on the greeting and three pink decorative ones on the pink banner and then five of the pink round ones around on the floral paper. 

Adhere the white piece to the inside of your card and one more of the flower cutouts to the lower right corner.  I didn’t put a greeting on the inside so that it was generic. 

This is an easy and quick card that is great to let anyone know you are thinking of them.
