I used the Stampin’ Up! Greatest Journey stamp set bundle to create a thinking of you card to share with you today. I made this project out on Instagram this morning and you can see it here.
My card design was inspired by CAS Colours & Sketches #507.
The colors for my card were inspired by Hand Stamped Sentiments #410.
My card also works for the Tic Tac Toe Challenge TTTC201. I went straight across the bottom row.
I started by cutting a panel of Basic White card stock with one of the Radiating Stitches Dies (Online Exclusive item). I adhered the die cut panel to the front of a Thick Basic White card base with Stampin’ Dimensionals. Then I stamped the floral image from the Greatest Journey stamp set in VersaMark ink on a panel of Basic White card stock, sprinkled it with white embossing power from the Basics Embossing Powders and then heat embossed it.
I used Water Painters and Balmy Blue, Pear Pizzazz and Fresh Freesia ink pads to watercolor the floral images. Then I cut the flowers out with the coordinating Greatest Journey Dies and I adhered the die cut to the card front with Mini Glue Dots. Then I tied a bow with white twine from the Baker’s Twine Essentials Pack and I adhered it with a Mini Glue Dot to the card front.
I stamped the sentiment from the Beautiful Thistle stamp set in VersaMark ink on a panel of Fresh Freesia card stock, sprinkled it with white embossing powder and then heat embossed it. I cut the sentiment out with one of the Something Fancy Dies and then adhered it to the card front with Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added two Fresh Freesia gems from the 2021-2023 In Color Opal Rounds to finish the card front.
I stamped the floral image from the Greatest Journey stamp set in Fresh Freesia ink on a panel of Basic White card stock to finish the inside of the card.

YouTube Live – Canceled Today
I was planning to go live to show you another project that I made with the Rhino Ready stamp set bundle on YouTube today…but unfortunately, the sniffles that I started with earlier this week have turned into a bad cold and I’ve almost completely lost my voice. I sound like a honking goose! So I’ll plan to see you all next Tuesday, hopefully my voice will be back by then! And I’ll post the project on my blog tomorrow so you can take a peek at it then.
