Simply Zinnia, Flowering Zinnia, Thank You Card, Stampin' Up!

Hello and welcome to my blog. Today my "Simply Zinnia" bundle was delivered.  YAY.  So of course I had to open the stamp set and create a card to share with you today. Please read on to see how I made today's card.

The base of my card is a folded half-sheet of Basic White card stock. I cut a 4" x 5-1/4" piece of Blackberry Bliss card stock for the layer.

A 3-3/4" x 5" piece of Basic White card stock was cut for the top layer and it was textured using the "Exposed Brick" embossing folder. I glued this piece to the Blackberry Bliss piece and then that was taped to the card base.

I cut a 3" x 2-3/4" piece of Designer Series Paper (DSP) from the "Flowering Zinnia" 12" x 12" package. I taped that to a 3-1/4" x 3" piece of Blackberry Bliss card stock and then I glued that to the front of the card. I use glue because I find that tape does not make 100% contact with the textured pieces and therefor will not hold as well and I know glue will hold.

The words are from the "Simply Zinnia" set and were stamped using BlackBerry Bliss ink on a scrap piece of Basic White card stock. I die cut them using the smallest die in the "Everyday Details" set.  I taped them to a piece of Blackberry Bliss card stock that I die cut with the next largest die in that set. Dimensionals were added to the back and the card was done.

This was a fun, quick and easy card to make. I like the look of the flowers with the Blackberry Bliss card stock, it's a nice contrast.

Thank you SO very much for taking your time to stop in and see today's thank you card,
