I used the Stampin’ Up! Thinking Thanks & Peace stamp set and beautiful Blackberry Beauty DSP to create a clean and simple thinking of you card.

My card design was inspired by the sketch from the SugarPea Mix It Up Challenge #82.

I started by adhering a panel of Blackberry Beauty DSP to the front of a Gray Granite card base with Multipurpose Liquid Glue.  Then I cut a panel of Brushed Metallic Cardstock with one of the Harvest Dies and adhered it with Stampin’ Seal (hidden under the area where the sentiment would be placed).

I stamped the sentiment from the Thinking Thanks & Peace stamp set in VersaMark Ink on a panel of Early Espresso card stock, sprinkled it with gold embossing powder from the Metallics Embossing Powders and then heat embossed it.  I cut the sentiment with one of the Layering Circles Dies and then stamped the image from the Beauty Of Tomorrow stamp set in Early Espresso ink on the die cut panel.

I trimmed the side off the circle die cut and then adhered it to the card front with Stampin’ Dimensionals to finish the card front.

I stamped the floral image from the Beauty Of Tomorrow stamp set in Early Espresso ink across a panel of Basic White card stock to finish the inside of the card.

You can see a list of supplies used to create this project, including the card stock cuts, at the very bottom of this blog post.
