Grow With Love Thank You Card
This Grow With Love Thank You Card is a fresh, nature-inspired way to show appreciation with handmade charm. Featuring soothing blues and greens, this card captures the beauty of lush herbs and delicate sprigs, making it perfect for any garden or plant lover. With the Grow with Love Stamp Set by Stampin’ Up!, you can create a heartfelt design that feels organic, elegant, and timeless.
This Distinktive stamp set is a dream to work with, offering incredible detail in just one stamp. The texture and shading built into each image make the herbs look almost real, effortlessly adding depth and dimension to your card. Whether you’re crafting for a friend, a thoughtful neighbor, or someone who has supported you, this thank you card is a perfect way to share your gratitude.
For this card, I went with a rich color palette of Blackberry Bliss, Fresh Freesia, and Shaded Spruce. If you’d like a softer color palette, make sure you check out my Color Combination Library where you’re sure to find something that will inspire you.
Not only does this card feature a botanical beauty, but the purples and greens create a calming, peaceful aesthetic. Whether you choose soft pastels for a fresh, airy look or deep, rich shades for a bold statement, these colors enhance the natural feel of the design. Paired with a simple thank-you sentiment, the result is a card that is as meaningful as it is beautiful.

Step-by-Step Instructions:
- Fold the Fresh Freesia Cardstock in half at the score line to create the card base.
- Adhere the 4″ x 5-1/4″ piece of Basic White cardstock inside the car.
- Run the Blackberry Bliss cardstock through the Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine using the Cane Weave 3D Embossing Folder. Using the White Craft Ink Pad, lightly run the ink pad with a sponge dauber and lightly rub white ink over the Blackberry Bliss cardstock. Make sure to use a light hand as you don’t want too much ink.
- Using the 2-1/4″ x 3-1/2″ piece of Basic White cardstock, stamp the frame using Blackberry Bliss ink. Stamp the “basil” image using Shaded Spruce ink into the frame as shown in the sample.
- Adhere the White cardstock to the Shaded Spruce cardstock and then adhere to the right side of the Blackberry Bliss cardstock.
- Stamp the sentiment onto the 1″ piece of Fresh Freesia cardstock using Shaded Spruce ink. Adhere to the card using Stampin’ Dimensionals to finish.
