It’s Tuesday! And what can I say… it’s back to work after a lovely long weekend full of sleep-ins. Ahhh bliss! Now we just have to hope that my makeup, freshly pressed outfit, and coffee do a fabulous job of disguising my inner sleepy self today! 😂 Surely it gets better as the day goes on… right?
Before the busy week completely sweeps me away, I wanted to share another card using the absolutely gorgeous Homemade Sweetness patterned paper. I just cannot get enough of these sweet, homely designs!
And can we just take a moment to appreciate how adorable this turned out? I am SO happy with the finished look! It honestly reminds me of a jam jar with a pretty piece of fabric wrapped over the lid and tied with ribbon. You know that homemade, country-style charm? Just gorgeous!
For this card, I really wanted to create a soft, cosy, homely feel for a thank you card—something simple and heartfelt that feels warm and welcoming. To bring that feeling to life, I added ribbon, some sweet bunting details, and a little layering behind the sentiment to give the design some extra softness and interest.
Sometimes it’s those tiny details that make a card feel extra special.
Tip of the Day: If you have favourite patterned papers that you simply can’t bear to part with (please tell me I’m not the only one! 😂), then the good news is that Stampin’ Up! has us covered. Most patterned paper packs include two sheets of each design, and some even include several more.
On this card, I used my favourite paper just as a little snippet across the top of the card. It means I still get to enjoy the pattern without using it all in one go—making those treasured designs stretch so much further.
Are you someone who hoards their favourite patterned paper too, or are you brave enough to use it straight away? I’d love to know!
Papery hugs,
