Hello Stampin’ Friends,

Today I’d like to share a simple and pretty card created with the Greatest Journey stamp and the Enjoy the Journey Designer Paper (which you can get FREE during Sale-a-bration). This card takes it a step up from just simply using designer paper and a greeting.

We begin our usual 8-1/2″ x 5-1/2″ card base; I’m chose Basic Black, scored and folded at 4-1/4. Then cut a a 4″ x 5-1/4 piece of designer paper, then cut off 1-1/4″ off each side leaving a 2-3/4″ center.

Next cut a 4″ x 3″ piece of Basic Black cardstock which will be mat the 2-3/4″ center piece of designer paper.

I attached the two end pieces on first, then I secured the center piece of designer paper onto the black mat. You can still see the flow of the card but you have the interesting design element by layering it … I did not use dimensionals on the center piece.

I stamped the greeting and just cut the ends off at a slant… then I popped it up. The final touch was to add the black dots from the Classic Mat Dots.

Super simple but with an interesting twist … great for when you need a quick card. Thank you for spending time with me today.

Here is a list of ingredients that were used in today’s card …
