This paper is so much prettier in real life.  I just love the subtle florals in this paper - perfect for any season and any occasion.  You can see two other cards that I made using this paper by clicking HERE and HERE   

Below is the sketch that I used to make my card.  It's a quick and easy one - my favorite type of card to make!

  • Mossy Meadow card base: 8-1/2 x 5-1/2; scored at 4-1/4

Saturday Sketch

 

Here's a card I made using a sketch - such an easy way to get started using new products.  The Brushed With Beauty Designer Series Paper that I used on this card is a new Online Exclusive product.  The paper is so much prettier in real life.  I just love the subtle florals in this paper - perfect for any season and any occasion.

CLICK HERE to see the beautiful card I made for my daughter's wedding, using this Designer Paper.

Below is the sketch that I used to make my card.

Because there are so many layers on this card - I used 12x12 Two Tone card stock for the Mossy Meadow mats; this card stock is lighter weight and keeps the card from becoming too bulky.

Measurements for making this card (in inches):

  • Basic Beige card base: 8-1/2 x 5-1/2; scored at 4-1/4  (I embossed the card front using the Beautiful Pattern 3D embossing folder.)
  • Mossy Meadow card stock mat: 3-3/4 x 3-3/4
  • DSP layer: 3-1/2 x 3-1/2
  • Mossy Meadow card stock mat: 3x3
  • DSP layer: 2-3/4 x 2-3/4
  • Mossy Meadow card stock strip: 3-1/2 x 3/4 (snip ends)
  • Label for sentiment is from the Traditional Labels dies

My Daughter's Wedding Day!


This is the card that I made for my daughter and new son-in-law for their wedding day today.  I used the new Brushed with Beauty Designer Series paper - which is one of the November 2025 online exclusives.

I wanted to make the card a little more special than my usual "Quick and Easy" cards, so I added layers to the card.  To keep it from getting too bulky - I used Mossy Meadow 2 Tone 12x12 card stock to mat the DSP and the Petal Pink embossed layer. 

I didn't have a current "wedding" stamp set - so I looked through my retired stamps - and found the perfect sentiment and coordinating die for the focal piece.  I heat embossed the sentiment using gold embossing powder.

I went through my dies and punches to find something to make the floral and greenery accents.  I am really happy with how it turned out.

Below is the inside of the card - I had to make that special, too.  The top floral piece is where we will add a check for their wedding gift.


This designer series paper is so much prettier in real life.  It is part of the Brushed With Beauty Suite Collection.


Stampin' Up! is offering a Virtual Class which features this suite.  You can learn more about it from clicking the Link below.
