Today’s card is a “stepped up” version of Thursday’s card, which was #simplestamping for beginning crafters. Casual crafters would need additional supplies, and find this a bit more challenging. My Supplies are in the Product List below.
I began by stamping the same three colors on an angle (Mango Melody, Parakeet Party, Flirty Flamingo), across Basic White Cardstock, 5 1/4″ X 4″. And, I used two of the same stamps as the first card, the splotch from Perched In A Tree, and the blossom from Apple Harvest.

Casual Crafters
After stamping, I used Amazing Thanks Dies to cut “you are amazing” from the stamped design. I used the “thicker” die, the bubble, to cut the holes, as well as the cardstock in colors to match the ink. Then, I glued this layer to a Thick Basic White card base, 8 1/2″ X 5 1/2″, folded at 4 1/4″.
Next, I cut the words from Basic White Cardstock, glued them to the bubbles, and glued “you are amazing” in the holes.
Lastly, I added three Iridescent Rhinestone Jewels on my “stepped up” card for the casual crafter. Come back tomorrow to see my “stepped up” card for avid crafters.
This is Thursday’s #simplestamping card for beginners, and clicking on it will take you to the original blog post.
