Today I am sharing my Hand-Penned Thank You Card that is using the Hand-Penned Suite Collection by Stampin’ Up! I love getting the Suite Collections since you know everything will go together perfectly!
The Hand-Penned Suite Collection includes:
- Hand-Penned Petals Stamp Set (10% off)
- Penned Flowers Dies (10% off)
- Hand-Penned Designer Series Paper
- Genial Gems
I thought that a Collar Fold would show off both sides of the beautiful Hand-Penned Designer Series Paper! So, I used my Collar Fold Template (found at the end of this post) to measure my DSP for the cutting and folding. Next, I used adhesive to glue the flaps down so that they didn’t interfere with the die cuts.
I wanted the “Thanks” sentiment to fit in the area between the folds resulting in a card that can be either vertical or horizontal. I found that I needed a background behind the stamped flowers to make them stand out from the DSP and the stitched circle from the Painted Labels Dies worked well for it. A butterfly was a perfect accent as if it is flitting from flower to flower on the DSP. The butterfly was die cut from the large piece of Highland Heather making sure that it was in a location that would be covered by the DSP which is a great way to save paper! A scattering of Genial Gems was all this card needed since I wanted the fold to be the focal point.
