If you want to make a quick and easy card, make something like this Dandy Garden Thank You Card. This designer paper is one that is coming in January 2021 in the Spring Mini Catalog that is bright and colorful and easy to use. One side of the sheets has colorful plants and dragonflies and the other side has generic patterns that are also fun to use with the nature patterns or on their own.

For something bright and different, I used Calypso Coral as the card base. It IS one of the coordinating colors for this designer paper, but it might not be your first choice seeing all the greenery in the papers. But on this paper, some of the dragonflies were Calypso Coral so I wanted to showcase that color. I think it might have been pretty, too, to use Blackberry Bliss cardstock as a layer under the designer paper.

The greeting is stamped in Calypso Coral Ink and is from the Dragonfly Garden Stamp Set. It is cut out with one of the Ornate Frames Dies. Then the greeting is layered over a piece of Calypso Coral punched with the Tailored Tag Punch. I popped that up on Stampin’ Dimensionals.

For a little bit more pizzazz, I added some Holiday Rhinestone Jewels on the card front in the yellowish color which might be named Pumpkin Pie!

That’s how easy this card is! Make a card base. Layer on a piece of designer paper. Stamp a greeting and layer it on another piece if you like. Add some jewels or sequins for a bit of bling! You could do this with any designer paper for any occasion. If you wanted to step it up, you could add a bit of ribbon or some jewels on the greeting itself.

Remember, these new products will be available in January in the January-June 2021 Mini Catalog along with two months of Sale-A-Bration! If you need an easy card, use this card design like I did on this Dandy Garden Thank You Card.
