Thankful Garden Online Class Projects

Hello! Today I'm excited to share the cards we created during this week's online class featuring the Thankful Garden Bundle and the Lovely Garden Designer Series Paper!

I paired Fresh Freesia, Soft Seafoam and Basic Black and White cardstock to build a soft elegant color palette. The layered florals add so much beautiful texture and the sentiments from the bundle are perfect for sending a little love a gratitude.

Coffee and a Card: Thankful Garden Bundle

We had such a fun time during this morning’s Coffee and a Card class, creating a gorgeous floral card using the Thankful Garden Bundle by Stampin’ Up! This bundle is packed with possibilities—and today’s project really showed off what it can do.

If you've never joined me for Coffee & Card Class, I go live usually on Monday at 10:00AM CT on both my Facebook and YouTube Channel. It' a great way to kick off the week with a little creativity—I'd love to have you join in.

You’ll find the basic measurements and a link to the video replay at the bottom of this post, so you can recreate this card at your own pace.

Here’s a peek at the card we made:

We started with a Fresh Freesia card base and layered it with a panel of Basic Black cardstock and a piece of the Lovely Garden Designer Series Paper. I added a decorative edge using the Fancy Borders Dies, which created the perfect frame for the floral centerpiece.

Using the masks that come in the Thankful Garden Bundle, I blended layers of Fresh Freesia ink with a blending brush to build up the dimensional flowers. For the leaves, I used Soft Sea Foam and Mossy Meadow, again layering the colors with blending brushes for beautiful depth.

Once the flowers and leaves were inked and masked, I die cut the floral image and used Stampin’ Dimensionals to pop it up on top of the designer series paper panel. I wrapped some Linen Thread around the panel for a natural touch, then adhered the whole piece to the card front.

The sentiment was stamped in Memento Black ink on Thick Basic White cardstock, then fussy cut and added to the front with Dimensionals. To finish it all off, I scattered a few Tinsel Gems across the card for that perfect bit of shimmer and sparkle.

Inside the card, I used the same floral mask and coloring technique on a 4" x 5-1/4" piece of Basic White cardstock and adhered it to the center—tying it all together.

MEASUREMENTS:

Fresh Freesia CS Base: 4-1/4" x 11-1/2" scored at 5-1/2"

Basic Black CS layer: 4" X 5-1/4"

Lovely Garden DSP layer: 3-1/2" x 5"

Basic White CS inside layer: 4" x 5-1/4"

DSP inside layer: 1/2" x 5-1/4"

Creative Thursday - Charming Duck Pond Bundle

Hey friends—happy Thursday! Today I have three adorable projects to share with you featuring the Charming Duck Pond Bundle and the Lily Pond Lane Designer Series Paper—these are on the Last Chance list, so if they're on your Wishlist, now's the time to grab them! I also used the *Stylish Shapes Dies and **Nested Essentials Dies to die-cut the circles and banners for these projects.

If you've never joined me for Creative Thursday, I go live every Thursday at 2 PM Central on my Stamped in Ink Facebook page and YouTube Channel—I'd love to have you join in sometime!

And, if you missed the live, no worries—you can watch the replay HERE!

For the first card, I created tons of texture and depth just by layering cardstock and designer paper—it’s such an easy way to add interest! I scattered a few of the die-cut lily flowers from the bundle across the stacked circles, then added a pop of contrast with cattails cut from Pretty Peacock cardstock. This card came together so simply, but the finished look is stunning—clean, fresh, and full of charm!

MEASUREMENTS:

Thick White CS Base: 4-1/4" x 11-1/2" scored at 5-1/2"

Pretty Peacock CS layer: 3-3/4" X 5"

Lily Pond Lane DSP layer: 3-1/2" x 4-1/2"

*Lily Pond Lane DSP Circle layer: 2"

*Thick White CS Circle layer: 2-1/2" x 3-1/2"

Basic White CS inside layer: 3-1/2" x 5"

DSP inside layer: 1/2" x 5-1/4"

For the next card, I had so much fun bringing this adorable little duck to life with Stampin’ Blends! I used Gray Granite for a soft, sweet base, added a pop of Granny Apple Green, a splash of Peach Pie, and just a hint of Pretty in Pink for those perfect finishing touches. The sentiment really stands out in bold Pretty Peacock ink—such a great contrast against the softer colors!

MEASUREMENTS:

Thick White CS Base: 5-1/2" x 8-1/2" scored at 4-1/4"

Pretty in Pink CS layer: 5-1/4" X 4"

Lily Pond Lane DSP layer: 3" x 4" & 1-1/2" x 5-1/2"

**Peach Pie CS banner layer: 2-1/2" x 1-5/8"

**Thick Basic White sentiment layer: 3/4" x 2-1/4"

*Thick White CS circle layer: 2-1/2" x 3-1/2"

*Lily Pond Lane DSP Circle

Basic White CS inside layer: 3-3/4" x 5"

DSP inside layer: 1/2" x 5-1/4"

The final card was a super simple fun fold— but it really packs a punch! with just a few layers of cardstock and designer paper, a bold sentiment, and a sprinkle of embellishments, we turned a basic layout into a total wow moment. It's one of those cards that looks impressive but comes together in no time!

MEASUREMENTS:

Gray Granite CS Base: 4-1/4" x 9-1/2" scored at 4"

Gray Granite CS flap piece: 1-1/2" x 4-1/4"

Lily Pond Lane DSP layers:  3" x 4" (front), 5-1/4" x 4" (inside)

Basic White CS layer inside: 4-1/4" x 3-1/4"

Pretty in Pink CS layer: 4-1/4" x 3-1/4"

Lily Pond Lane DSP layer: 3" x 4"

*Thick White CS circle: 1-1/2"
