When you want to send someone a little reminder of how awesome they are, this card is the perfect fit! Featuring the stunning Memorable Blooms Bundle, the versatile Nested Essentials Dies, and the calming Soft Waves Embossing Folder, this card is an easy and elegant way to share your appreciation. Let’s break down how this card came together and how you can create your own version for the next time you need to send a positive message.
The Memorable Blooms Bundle is a perfect choice for creating a floral-inspired card that’s both fresh and modern. For this card, I’ve used the bundle’s stamps to create a subtle background pattern in Night of Navy ink, giving the card texture without overwhelming the design. The bold sentiment “You Are Awesome!” is stamped on a die-cut shape from the Nested Essentials Dies, a set that provides the perfect balance between simple and elegant.
The Soft Waves 3D Embossing Folder creates a beautiful textured background in soft blue, evoking a sense of calm and serenity. The wavy texture pairs so well with the clean lines of the rest of the design. To add some contrast and make the design pop, I used Night of Navy cardstock for the sentiment panel, giving it just the right amount of richness. A simple sheer ribbon bow adds a touch of elegance, making this card the perfect mix of fun and refined.
When using a background embossing folder like the Soft Waves 3D Embossing Folder, make sure to keep the focal point simple and clean. This allows the texture of the background to shine while still making the main elements of the card stand out. Pairing the embossed background with a clean sentiment and simple embellishments keeps the card balanced and sophisticated.
