Stampin’ Up! Charming Day Thanks For Being You Card

Good Morning! The Floral Charm designer series paper is so pretty with florals in lush Fall colors and complimenting designs. I picked a couple of patterns to use with the Stampin’ Up! Charming Day bundle to make a simple card to express gratitude and friendship. You can find the card stock cuts along with supplies at the bottom of my post.

Adhere a Pretty Peacock leafy panel of Floral Charm designer series paper to the front of a Pretty Peacock card base with liquid glue. Cut a floral panel of the DSP into three strips and adhere them to a Fresh Freesia mat. Adhere the mat to the card front with dimensionals.

Cut the top part of the leafy sprig die from the Stampin’ Up! Charming Day dies from Pretty Peacock and adhere it to the card with glue dots. Fold a length of ribbon and adhere it to the card with Stampin’ Seal. I used a retired Pretty Peacock and Gold ribbon for a touch of glamour, but you could also use the Pretty Peacock Stampin’ Blends to color a white ribbon and use that instead.

Stamp the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Charming Day stamp set on a Fresh Freesia panel using Pretty Peacock ink. Cut it out using the small oval label die from the pretty Traditional Labels dies and adhere it to the card with dimensionals. Finish with Petunia Pop shimmer gems.

For the inside panel, stamp the leaf sprig from the Stampin’ Up! Charming Day stamp set in the corner of a Basic White panel using Pretty Peacock ink. Stamp the sentiment in Fresh Freesia ink towards the bottom, leaving room for a DSP trim. Adhere it to the inside of the card.

I can’t decide which of the florals in the Floral Charm designer series paper pack are my favorite, but a simple card design like this is a good way to show off pretty papers. Cutting the floral pattern in thirds adds a little extra interest to the card design without too much complication.

Thanks so much for stopping by and Happy Stamping!!
