Through this whole Covid 19 pandemic I have tried my
best to stay in touch with folks I know are being impacted by loneliness due to
isolation. One group I have worked hard
to try to stay connected with the shut-ins from my church, especially a little
group of five that my husband and I visit and provide communion to. Since they all live in an Independent Living
facility we can’t visit or provide communion so it became very important to me
to find a way to stay engaged with them and let them know they were being
thought of and they were not alone. The
best way for me to do that was through my cards so here is one of the ones I
will be mailing out this week.
The card base is Just Jade cardstock cut to 5 ½ x 8 ½”
and scored at 4 ¼”. I then prepared the
card front. I cut a piece of Bubble Bee
cardstock to 4 x 5 ¼” and added two pieces of the Flowers for Every Season
Designer Series Paper (I liked how these papers look together, the coordination
of products and colors is one of the great parts of Stampin’ Up!). One was cut 2 ½ x 5” and the second was cut 1
1/8 x 5”. Just adhere them to the Bubble
Bee cardstock layer leaving equal borders showing around both. I wrapped a piece of the new ¼” Just Jade
2020 – 2022 In Color ribbon around this layer and tied a bow. Then I popped it up onto the card base using
Dimensionals.
For my sentiment I used the Celebrate Sunflowers stamp
set and was stamped onto Whisper White cardstock using Misty Moonlight
ink. The sentiment was then cut out
using the Layering Ovals dies as was the scalloped oval cut out from Just Jade
cardstock that it is mounted on. The
sentiment was popped up using Dimensionals.
As you can see this is an easy and fast card so I
could produce several in a short period of time to remind my friends that they
are loved and in my prayers. I hope you
enjoy this card. I will list the
supplies I used below and you can find the supplies for this card and many more
