Words Of Beauty for Global Design Project

Mar 9, 2026 | Gallery, Global Design Project, Hand-Crafted Cards | 0 comments

The Garden Poetry Designer Paper is beautiful, and I used two patterns for this week’s Global Design Project sketch challenge. I began with a 5 1/2″ X 4 1/4″ piece of the splash pattern. Then, I cut a 5 1/2″ X 4 1/4″ floral pattern, on an angle with my Paper Trimmer. After gluing them together, I cut them to 5 1/4″ X 4″, and glued them to a Shaded Spruce card base, 8 1/2″ X 5 1/2″, folded at 4 1/4″. Next, I used Words Of Beauty Dies to cut “because” from Shaded Spruce Cardstock, backed with Basic White Cardstock, and attached with Dimensionals.

Garden Poetry “because”

Prior to attaching “because,” I made a nice dividing line with a Cutest Crew Die. After using it to cut Shaded Spruce Cardstock, I glued it in place.

To complete the sentiment, I used the words from the Wonderful Thoughts Stamp Set, “You’re wonderful. You’re loved. You matter.” I stamped the words in Shaded Spruce Ink on Basic White Cardstock, and used a Wonderful Thoughts Die for cutting. Then, I snipped the words apart, and glued them in place. I embellished the card with Pearls of Beauty.

Here is the sketch. Won’t you join us this week for the sketch challenge? Please share on social media, and tag it #gdp538.
