I used the Stampin Up! Sunburst Sayings stamp set to create a clean and simple thank you card to share today.
My card design was inspired by CAS(E) this Sketch #157.
I started by cutting a large panel of scrap card stock with the Sunburst Thinlits Die. I cut the panel so that none of the die edges were overlapping the edge of the card stock so that it would create a mask.
I placed the mask on a panel of Whisper White card stock and I sponged Daffodil Delight ink over the center of the sun.
Then I punched a cloud with the Tree Builder Punch from Whisper White card stock. I used the “negative” left behind after the punch to sponge Soft Sky ink in a cloud shape on the Whisper White card stock panel. I sponged a little around the edge of the cloud punch with Soft Sky ink and I placed it on the Whisper White panel and adhered it with a tiny bit of SNAIL, just enough to hold it in place while I stamped over it.
I stamped the sentiment from the Sunburst Sayings stamp set in Soft Suede ink over the cloud image and the Whisper White panel using the MISTI (or you can use a Stamp-a-ma-jig as well). I removed the cloud punch and re-stamped the sentiment so that it did not have a gap in the line. I adhered the cloud punch pack in place firmly with SNAIL, then adhered the stamped panel to a panel of Soft Suede card stock with SNAIL.
I adhered the layered panel to a Soft Sky card base with Stampin’ Dimensionals and I added a single Rhinestone Basic Jewel to add a little sparkle.
I used the sunburst and cloud masks to sponge a little Daffodil Delight and Soft Suede inks on a Whisper White panel. Then I colored the sentiment from the Sunburst Sayings stamp set with Daffodil Delight and Soft Suede Stampin’ Write Markers and I stamped it on the Whisper White panel inside the card.

It’s pouring here so it was nice to wake up to your beautiful sunshine!
It’s pouring in Atlanta right now too! Glad that my card brought a little sunshine to you. 🙂
Beautiful! 🙂
Thanks so much Mary! 🙂
Such a bright and beautiful card — wish it would make the rain go away! 🙂 What an awesome CASE, like the way used your negatives Amy. Sometimes I forget this technique. I’ve been thinking about this Sunburst die…hmm, what would Amy think?! 😛
Thanks Jill! Hmmm…of course I’d tell you that you “need” this die. It’s awesome!! 😉
Love that you show the inside of your cards….they are as pretty as the outside
Thanks so much Pat! 🙂
Definitely uplifting on this gloomy, rainy day in GA! So bright and cheery-love it!
Thanks so much Jari! The rain has finally stopped at my house…hope that we dry out some soon! 🙂
Oh, this is so soft and serene! Wonderful take on the sketch!
Thanks Leigh! 🙂
Great take on the sketch, Amy! Love the stenciled sun.
