At my August stamping classes, I highlighted the Inspired Thoughts Bundle from the Stampin' Up! 2021-22 Annual Catalog. From this bundle, we made a spring, summer, fall and winter card. This bundle includes the Inspired Thoughts Stamp Set and the Inspiring Canopy Dies.
The Inspired Thoughts Stamp Set has many heartfelt sentiments designed specifically for card fronts and inside the card! Plus, the font style in this stamp set is clean and neutral, making it a complementary match to all of your favorite image stamps!
You will be inspired by the whimsical canopies of the Inspiring Canopy Dies! You can layer the canopy designs with tonal cardstock, designer series paper, or you can try out various coloring techniques to bring your nature-inspired designs to life.
Below are the instructions for the spring card we recently made.
