Special Cards for Special People
I made this card for my daughter after they purchased their very first home. It gives me such joy to make special cards for special people, for special reasons!
The CONGRATULATIONS came from the stamp set called: Here’s a Card. Everything else is in the From Our Home to Yours stamp set.
Colors I Used:
Card Recipe:
- Pacific Point: 8 1/2″ x 5 1/2″
- Whisper White: 3 1/4″ x 4 1/2″
- Basic Black: 3 3/8″ x 4 5/8″
- Inside:
- Whisper White: 3 3/4″ x 5″
- Basic Black: 3 7/8″ x 5 1/8″

Same Stamps for a Special Christmas Card
While I had these colors out, I decided to also make a Christmas card for them since we will not be with them on Christmas.
The card recipe is the same, I just used Crumb Cake and Cherry Cobbler instead of the Pacific Point and Basic Black.
