The size of a notecard is 3 1/2 x 5 and is simply a sweet size. And, it is not too small to be mailed. My card today is made with one of the Basic White Notecards and Envelopes.

Stampin' Up! Circle Sayings on a Notecard

I began by stamping this cute cupcake from Circle Sayings stamp set in Crumb Cake ink and coloring it with Stampin’ Blends Bubble Bath for the icing and Light Smoky Slate for the wrap, I wanted it to look like a foil so added Wink of Stella for the shine. It doesn’t show in the photo but it does in person :O) I stamped the ‘circle saying’ in Crumb Cake as well and die cut with a circle from Sylish Shapes Dies. For more sparkle (cuz birthdays are special occasions) I die cut a larger circle from Soft Shimmer paper in Bubble Bath – yep, Stylish Shapes Dies. I added a bow made from the Simply Elegant Trim in silver and attached it with a glue dot. This item I set aside.

On a piece of Crumb Cake I stamped repeatedly the words Happy Birthday using a stamp from Go To Greetings – in Crumb Cake ink. I attached the stamped and decorated circle with dimensionals. I cut small strips of the same Soft Glimmer paper in Bubble Bath and attached them to the Notecard front, then added the Crumb Cake panel. The Pastel Adhesive-Backed Sequins in Petal Pink seemed to match pretty well, so I added those as well.

Stampin' Up! Circle Sayings Notecard inside

For the inside… I used Bubble Bath ink and Crumb Cake ink to stamp sentiments from Circle Sayings stamp set on a Basic White piece. This was added to a very slightly larger panel of Crumb Cake and added to the inside of the card.

Stampin' Up! Circle Saying Notecard and Envelope

For the envelope I used another sentiment from Go To Greetings stamp set to stamp in Crumb Cake ink – and that was it. I kept it very simple.

Thanks for stopping by. May you have a beautiful day.

Share yourself with others in the creativity of handmade cards – another way of connecting with love.

Today’s card is just full of sweetness. The colors are soft, the images are gentle – it’s just, well, lovely. I hope you like it too.

I cut three Basic White panels & ran two of them through the Pretty Pop-Up Dies using the rectangular die. I colored the images with very soft colors… Stampin’ Blends: Light Highland Heather, Light So Saffron, Dark Soft Sea Foam, and Light Smoky Slate. I stamped the last Basic White panel with a sentiment from Nature’s Prints (love the fonts in this set) in Smoky Slate ink, then ran this through the the mini cut & emboss machine using just the two butterfly images. I made sure the butterflies on each panel had their wings raised just a bit :O) then adhered all three panels to a Soft Sea Foam piece of card stock, then onto a slightly larger panel of Basic White, popped that on dimensionals and added it to the Soft Sea Foam card base. Oh wait… that card base has a piece of Subtles 6×6 DSP on it in Soft Sea Foam 😳 And the card front was done.

For the inside… The sentiment is stamped in Smoky Slate ink using the Peaceful Moments stamp set – on a Basic White panel. I adhered a 1/2″ strip of the same Subtles 6×6 DSP near the bottom of the panel and adhered it to the inside of the card.

It’s really hard to see, but the envelope flap was run through the Timeworn Torn 3D embossing folder – and that was it – card is ready to be sent. This is going to a very favorite person who just lost her husband, age 95 or maybe 96. He really, really cared well for his wife who has memory issues. She still knows me and will appreciate the card, but the loss of her hubby will throw her into a tailspin, mostly because of the memory problems. Ugh… loss is very, very hard. I could have gone through my stash of cards and sent one already made, but there is something cathartic and healing in making a card for someone special.

Here’s another photo of the card…
