Lately, I have needed more “get well” cards than I have in the past. I love Fun Fold cards, so I decided to do a W Fold with the Speedy Recovery Stamp Set for a “stepped-up” Get Well card! The Speedy Recovery Stamp Set is comprised of “distinctive” stamps for detailed images. I used a color combo from the 2022-2024 In Color Coach. Primarily because, it forced me out of my comfort zone to use colors I wouldn’t ordinarily use, together.
Blushing Bride was used for, both, the inside and outside of the card. The outside made use of cardstock embossed with the Gingham Embossing Folder, while the inside used Blushing Bride Designer Series Paper. Overall, I was pretty pleased with the end result.
The video below provides the instructions and some tips for constructing the card. Further down in the post, are the measurements, supplies and written instructions. Scroll down to the bottom to download the 2022-2024 Color Coach. I would love to hear from you, leave me a comment below and let me know what you think of the colors!
