It’s Saturday and I have a simple card today. It uses minimal supplies, many of which I have used in previous posts. So if you’ve been creating with me, you should be set! Marilyn here with another card.

To make the card base, I cut a piece of Secret Sea cardstock to 4¼” x 11” on my Paper Trimmer, scored and folded at 4¼”, and burnished with my Bone Folder. I cut a piece from Woven Textures DSP to 1¾” x 4¾”.

I cut another piece to 2¼” x 4″.

With a scrap of Basic White cardstock, I stamped the larger leaf image from Textured Notes bundle in Secret Sea ink. Since the dies in this bundle cut various rectangles instead of the images, I fussy cut this out.

With Crumb Cake ink, I stamped the smaller leaf branch on the linen like DSP piece.

I stamped Thank You from Textured Notes bundle in Secret Sea ink on Basic White cardstock. I die cut this out with my dies from Textured Notes bundle on my Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine. I made sure the words were more to the right side of the die.

Now that I have all my pieces, I can assemble my card. I adhered the longer DSP strip to the left-hand side of the card using my favorite adhesive (Multipurpose Liquid Glue or Stampin’ Seal) with an even border on the left, right, and top. On this I adhered the stamped piece of DSP to the right side, leaving even borders top, bottom, and right side.

Before adhering my label, I made sure that everything would be where I wanted it to be before gluing. When I was satisfied with the placement, I adhered them down.

I added my fussy cut leaf branch.

For a little sparkle and shine, I added three Iridescent Foil Gems to my card. I tied a bow with Gold Striped Mesh Ribbon and adhered this to my card with a Mini Glue Dot.

To finish the card, I glued a 4” x 5¼” piece of Basic White cardstock inside my card. You could jazz up hte inside by stamping one of the leaf sprigs inside.

I hope you liked this simple card.
