I LOVE the Wishing you Well stamp set in the 2018 Stampin UP! Holiday catalog! Find it on page 35, or HERE online.
I hope YOU love the fall themed thank you cards I came up with using this stamp set!
As you can see above, I played with a few different colors, just mixing and matching these colors:
Crushed Curry, Fresh Fig, Rich Razzleberry, Blackberry Bliss and Smoky Slate.
I love this Hostess set from Stampin' Up! called Warm Hearted (pictured above at left), (pg 54 in the 2018 Holiday catalog). I used the THANKS stamp from this set in my card design. You can purchase this set (or any hostess set) when your order or party total is over $150. (Use Stampin' Rewards, a.k.a. hostess dollars, to purchase hostess sets or any product from the catalog). I stamped it with Crushed Curry ink onto the patterned paper from the Country Lane designer series paper pack (pg 43 Holiday catalog, #147804).
I also used 2 other patterns from this paper pack on my card. The striped pattern behind the oval, and the polka dot strip, are both from the Country Lane paper pack.
Country Lane designer paper #147804 available online here
I die cut Very Vanilla stitched shape ovals, and stamped the "wheat" sprigs in Crushed Curry, and the flowers in Blackberry Bliss. I also stamped the bow in Blackberry Bliss. I attached the oval to a Crushed Curry Scalloped Oval die cut and added that to the card.
Cutting Dimensions:
- Base Card: 4-1/4" x 9", score at 5-1/2"
- Striped Country Lane paper: 3"x4"
- Crushed Curry Country Lane paper: 4" x 1-1/2"
- Polka dot Country Lane paper: 4" x 1/2"
- Very Vanilla (inside) 4" x 5-1/4"
So then.. the secret weapon on this card.. I spritzed the finished card with some Gold Shimmer Paint mixed into a Stampin' Spritzer with rubbing alcohol.. it's SO PRETTY in person!! Watch the VIDEO HERE to see how to make your own shimmer mist!!
I also decided to try a horizontal version, and I actually used a sympathy sentiment from the Wishing You Well set. I added gold metallic pearls to this card. I think it turned out lovely.
Do you have a favorite version of my card idea?

So beautiful! Love them all! Wishing you a happy day! Hugs.
I like all of these cards, Patty, but you asked about a favorite. Mine is the horizontal (landscape) card. Why? It’ll stand up on its own for display!
Good evening Patty,
No favorite… I love them all….And I got one of these lovely cards. Thank you soooo much… They are gorgeous.
