Art Gallery, Artistically Inked, Thank You Card, 2021-2022 Stampin' Up! Catalog

Today's card was found on Pinterest and I thought I'd give it a try. You can see the original card here. What caught my eye about this card was the scored lines on all four edges.

The base of the card is a folded half-sheet of Basic White card stock. A 4" x 5-1/4" piece of Shaded Spruce card stock was taped on top. And the top Basic White piece was cut at 3-7/8" x 5-1/8".

The Basic White piece was scored at 3/8" and 1/2", then turned and scored the same and then repeated for all sides.

I set the stamps from the "Art Gallery" set on top to make sure I had room for them. I set the card stock in my Stamparatus and set the more solid flower stamp near the edges of the inside score lines. I stamped that image using Polished Pink ink.

Then the detailed image was stamped using Melon Mambo ink. I was glad that I was able to find two inks that were complementary to each other so I didn't have to stamp off. I really do like these two colors together.

The stem was set in place and then stamped using Shaded Spruce ink.

The words are from the "Artistically Inked" set and were stamped using black Memento ink. And the card was done.  If I were going to be doing a swap, this is the card I would make. It's pretty and it's SO quick. Once set up in the Stamparatus you can make a bunch in no time!

This card can be used for several other occasions, like Mother's Day, Get Well, Wedding, Thinking of You and a Birthday card too!

Thank you SO very much for taking your time to see today's quick and versatile card,
Wanda
