Use a Simple Card Sketch with New Stamps

1/12/2022

Use a simple card sketch to create a beautiful handmade card with the In Symmetry stamp set from Stampin' Up!

Do you ever get new stamps and you aren't quite sure what to do with them? I find that using a simple card sketch can help when you're playing with a new stamp set or patterned paper. And I have a great one for you today!

I used this card sketch as the basis for my Mystery Stamping event this week. It was so much fun seeing what everyone came up with! I hope you'll join me next Tuesday night at 8pm Eastern in the On Y Go! Stamping Facebook group. I post the list of supplies on Monday afternoon or evening. Then, during a Facebook live event, I give you step-by-step instructions to complete the card with your prepared supplies.

On y go! Let's get stamping.

Today, I have some great SIP cards using the Texture & Frames stamp set with sentiments from the In Your Words stamp set. The best part of these sets? You can get them FREE during Sale-a-Bration, but only until the end of September. So, on y go! Let's get stamping.

Elegant sympathy card idea with a fancy fold. This handmade sympathy card has stunning touches of silver on the Peaceful Place patterned paper from Stampin' Up!

Sympathy Card Design

Nobody likes making sympathy cards, but it's always nice to have a few on hand when you need them. The Peaceful Place patterned paper provides the perfect serene backdrop for an elegant sympathy card. The sentiment is from the Peaceful Moments stamp set. Change out the sentiment and this would also be a beautiful - and easy - Christmas card idea.

Floral Thank You Card Idea

I know this card looks a little more spring than fall, but y'all, I cannot get enough of the Pattern Party patterned paper. It's just too gorgeous! If you want to get your hands on this gorgeous paper, you have to host a workshop or class or place your own $150 order. But it is so worth it!

I also used the Delicate Dahlias stamp set that is available for FREE during Sale-a-Bration! I can't get enough of these beautiful flowers either. With a photorealistic inside and a separate outline stamp for the outside, it is so versatile. If you haven't already, check out my video on the different looks you can get with these stamps.

Christmas Card Design with Soft Colors

My last fun fold card sample is a Christmas card because while it's still warm and sunny, it's never too early to start working on making your holiday cards! This one is very easy to make and beautiful too. The Whimsy & Wonder patterned paper has shiny iridescent accents. It's so gorgeous in person!
