Unbounded Love, Thoughtful Journey, Birthday Card, Stampin' Up!

Hello and welcome to my blog. I have an update on my hip replacement surgery. I saw the surgeon yesterday and the bandage was removed. I didn't want to look!  LOL It's healing nicely and I can resume all of my regular daily duties, even driving! My balance is great and I am walking pretty normal, it's not quite perfect but the muscles and the area is still swollen so it will take a little longer to be "normal". But for the most part I'm off and running and happy with the progress. It's such great news and I just had to share it with you.  Now onto today's card. 

I have a quick and simple birthday card to share with you.  It was supposed to be a sympathy card but I picked up the wrong wording so now I have a birthday card. I do have the other half of the Designer Series Paper (DSP) so I can make the card I need after I get done posting this one. I won't share it here since it will look a lot like this one. 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. It opens on the right and the fold is on the left.

I cut a 4" x 5-1/4" piece of Boho Blue card stock. 

The DSP is from the "Thoughtful Journey" 6" x 6" stack. I cut the piece in half and then cut that strip at 5". I also textured a 4" x 5-1/4" piece of Basic White card stock using the "Distressed Tile" embossing folder. I cut that piece at 5" x 1-1/2". I glued that strip to the left of the Boho Blue piece and the DSP was glued to the right. I taped that piece to the front of the card.

The words are from the "Unbounded Love" bundle. I stamped them on a scrap piece of Basic White card stock using Mossy Meadow ink. I cut them out using the die from the "Unbounded Love" bundle. Dimensionals were added to the back and it was set in place on the front of the card.  And that was it, the card was done.

This is such a super quick and easy card to make.

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

Love the layout of this card, Wanda. I have the 6x6 Thoughtful Journey DSP and your card will be one I will definitely case. Love simple cards to make since my time is short to create them. Thank you for sharing.
