Beautiful Gallery Thinking of You Card

This is a great masculine card, but really anyone would probably enjoy getting it.  It is another easy card where the Beautiful Gallery designer series paper from Stampin’ Up does most of the work.

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

  • Crumb Cake card stock (Stampin’ Up)
  • Early Expresso card stock (Stampin’ Up)
  • Mossy Meadow card stock (Stampin’ Up)
  • Basic Beige card stock (Stampin’ Up
  • Beautiful Gallery designer series paper (2025 Annual Catalog Stampin’ Up)
  • Beautiful Motifs stamp set (2025 Annual Catalog Stampin’ Up)
  • Damask Design Embossing Folder (2025 Annual Catalog Stampin’ Up)
  • Mossy Meadow ink (Stampin’ Up)
  • Paper trimmer
  • Adhesive of choice

For your card base cut a piece of Crumb Cake card stock to 5 ½” x 8 ½” and fold in half and a small label piece to 3/*” x 2 ½”.  From the Early Express cut a piece to 3 ¼” x 5 ½” and another piece to 5/8” x 2 ½” and a third piece for the inside to 4 1/8” x 5 3/8”.  Then cut a piece of Mossy Meadow 3 1/8” x 5 ½”, one to ½” x 2 ½” and one for the inside to 4” x 5 ¼”.  Now cut a piece from the Basic Beige for the inside to 3 7/8” x 5 1/8”.

From the Beautiful Gallery designer series paper find the piece that has the cottage on the river and cut it down to 3” x 5 3/8” fitting in the clouds and river to the whay you like it.  I took about ½” off the top and then cut in 5 3/8” from ther right side.

With your Crumb Cake card base and the Damask Design Embossing Folder that is part of the suite, emboss the front section of your card.  Take the cottage paper and adhere to the Mossy Meadow piece and then to the Early Expresso piece and adhere to the front of your embossed card front, about ¼” from the top. 

Take your Crumb Cake label piece, the Beautiful Motifs stamp set and stamp the “Thinking of You” greeting in Mossy Meadow ink.  Adhere your label to the Mossy Meadow label and then the Early Expresso label and adhere centered to the bottom of the front of the card. 

For the inside of your card, take the “You’ve been on my mind” stamp and stamp in Mossy Meadow ink on the upper center of the Basic Beige piece.  Then adhere that to the Mossy Meadow inside piece and then the Early Expresso inside piece and adhere to the inside of your card. 

Now you have a great card you can send to anyone.
