Whenever I need a quick card, my first go to will always be my patterned papers. I keep swatch books on my desk and I can always flip through these to find an idea. With Stampin’ Up! beautiful Designer Series Paper (DSP), I can always find something to help me create a quick and simple card. In fact being able to create a card and especially for the recipient it one of the joys of being a paper crafter. You can lift someone’s spirit with s simple gesture like a handmade card.
For this card, I went right to the Thoughtful Journey DSP. This paper was just what I was looking for. It was the right mix of subdued, yet comforting, hopeful colors, which worked perfect for what I wanted to convey in this card. All I had to do was add a sentiment and the card was done. I added some extra interest with a Petunia Pop ribbon under the sentiment and the Brass Butterflies seemed perfect for the design in this paper. And I like that butterflies symbolize hope. It was a nice touch for this card.
