So all the materials are from Stampin Up including this retired stamp set and the paper pack I used. Most paper packs have coordinating or monochromatic colours so this card can easily be re-created in your own style.

The card base is folded 5 1/2″ x 4 1/4″ piece of Soft Suede cardstock, I added a 5 1/4″ x 4″ piece of Very Vanilla cardstock, I sponged the edges with Soft Suede ink.

I choose 3 colour coordinated patterned papers and cut them into 1 1/4″ x 3 1/4″ pieces and I sponged the edges with Soft Suede ink, then I matted them with 3 Soft Suede pieces of cardstock cut to 1 1/2″ x 3 1/2″ and spaced them evenly on top of the Very Vanilla cardstock.

The greeting was stamped on to a piece of Very Vanilla Cardstock and trimmed to 1 7/8″ x 2 1/8″, this is a random size which I didn’t measure at the time, I just trimmed it so it would have an eaqual amount of vanilla spacing around the stamped image and I sponged the edges with Soft Suede ink. I matted it on to a 2 1/8″ x 2 3/8″ piece of Soft Suede cardstock again a random size, it is just slightly bigger than the Vanilla cardstock and adhered it to the card on to the left side.
