If you love quick and easy cards, today’s project is for you! This easy card template is one of those layouts you can use over and over with any stamps, ink, and paper you already have in your craft room. It’s simple, beginner-friendly, and perfect for letting your Designer Series Paper do the work. In today’s video tutorial, I’ll show you how to create this fun layout step-by-step, plus share several different card variations to inspire you to try it with your own favorite products.
For today’s featured card, I used the beautiful Garden Gatherings stamp set paired with the Brights Designer Series Paper. I absolutely love how bright, cheerful, and versatile these colors are for summer card making! The combination of Melon Mambo, Granny Apple Green, Balmy Blue, and Secret Sea creates a fun and fresh look that works for so many occasions.
I also created additional card variations using the lovely Prayers & Promises stamp set along with the gorgeous Velvet Meadow Designer Series Paper. These softer floral designs give the same easy card template a completely different feel. One of my favorite things about this layout is how easily you can switch up the papers and sentiments to create endless card ideas with supplies you already own.

More Card Samples Using This Easy Card Template
One of the reasons I love using templates for card making is because you can take one simple layout and create endless different looks just by changing a few small details. Turn the template a different direction, swap out the Designer Series Paper, change the sentiment shape, or use completely different colors and stamps — and suddenly you have a whole new card design!
That’s what makes templates so helpful, especially for beginner card makers. The hard design work is already done for you, but there is still plenty of room to be creative and make each card your own. Here are a few more samples showing just how versatile this easy card template can be.
