5 Minute Thank You Card Using Card Sketch 31
Short on time but love to craft? Make this 5 Minute Thank You Card using Card Sketch 31. If you’re anything like me, your days are packed but your love for crafting never wanes. Today, I’m thrilled to share a perfect solution for busy women who want to infuse a bit of creativity into their hectic schedules. I’ll show you how to whip up quick handmade cards that look anything but rushed.
This card uses Card Sketch 31 which is showcased in our Stampin’ Up! 2025 January-April Occasions Catalog on page 12, Card Sketch #6. (View our digital catalog here.)
To make this Thank You card even easier to create, I used the beautiful Bloom Impressions Sale-A-Bration paper, which you can get for free with a $60 order between now and February 28, 2025. which provided the color combination of Summer Splash, Calypso Coral, and Melon Mambo. These colors pair beautifully together and created a clean and elegant design. If you’d prefer a softer color combination, make sure you check out my Color Combination Library.
