Oh the memoriesFriendship day a little late

Ok, so I had absolutely no idea that July 30th was Friendship Day.  I'm so bummed that I missed it because I can't imagine many other things that deserve a special day for celebration more than friendship.  This card would be a wonderful thing to send to a friend to let them know that they mean a lot to you, and that you're thinking of them.

I created this sample for the New Catalog open house event that I had a couple of weeks ago.  I wanted to have some samples for the various Designer Series Paper that I had purchased in my pre-order.  I was especially drawn to the Well Worn paper because the style reminds me of Basic Gray papers.  I am especially fond of many of their paper lines – just ask any of my scrappin' friends.  😉 Stampin' Up! is have a special this month on the Designer Series Paper – buy 3 get 1 free.  To check it out, click on the Specials link in my right side bar.

If you want to recreate this card, here are the supplies I used:

  • Stamps: Word Play
  • Cardstock: Not Quite Navy, Very Vanilla, Early Espresso, River Rock
  • Designer Series Paper: Well Worn
  • Ink: Not Quite Navy, Early Espresso
  • Accessories: Corner rounder punch, Stampin' sponges, Artichoke denim ribbon
