A sympathy or thinking about you card should be beautiful but doesn’t have to be complicated. It’s the thought and personal message in a handmade card that make it so special to the recipient. For the super-simple, layered card I am sharing today, I am featuring three new products from Stampin’ Up!’s 2020 Annual Catalog that look great together. How fun! Here’s my card:
- Three New Products. My simple card features sneak peeks at three new items in Stampin’ Up!’s 2020 Annual Catalog – a stamp set, an embossing folder and a set of dies. It’s great fun to show you so much at once. 🙂 The Comfort & Hope stamp set is available to demonstrators who met certain sales goals over the last six months – it’s a beautiful stamp set with lots of great “thinking of you” and “sympathy” sentiments. I chose the bold “Comfort and Hope” sentiment for my card. Here’s a look at this great, new stamp set:
The Sahara Sand background on my card was embossed with an incredible, new 3D Embossing Folder in the new catalog. Here’s a look at the gorgeous texture created by the Old World Paper 3D Embossing Folder:
The gorgeous cutout on my card is from the Forever Flourishing Dies, part of the new Forever Fern Bundle. What a gorgeous bundle! Here’s a look:
- Ornate Style. The sentiment on my card is cropped with one of the stitched dies in the Ornate Style Bundle. While this bundle (and the Ornate Thanks Bundle) are ALSO new in Stampin’ Up!’s 2020 Annual Catalog, they’ve been early-released – so you can buy them now! Here’s a look at the Ornate Style Bundle:
And here’s a closer look at the cropped sentiment on my card:

- Going Green. I mixed three colors with green tones on today’s card. I was inspired to go “all green” by the new Forever Greenery Designer Series Paper that coordinates with the Forever Fern Bundle but added my own twist. How gorgeous is this combination?! If you like this mix of Pretty Peacock, Old Olive and Mossy Meadow as much as I do, please save this for future reference:

Brian, this is absolutely STUNNING! I just got my preorder last night, and I’m chomping at the bit to use so much of everything in the box. I also got this stamp set, and your use of it is perfect! That embossing folder made me gasp out loud when I opened it, so I know you must love it. Beautiful card! TFS
Thanks so much, Bobbi! I absolutely adore this embossing folder and can already tell I’ll be using it lots. ♥ So many great, new things in this catalog, and I can’t wait to use all of it! ♥
Yep that embossing folder is on my list! Very pretty card!

Somehow I missed this post and I’m so glad you gave us the link to it in today’s post. This is a beautiful card. I, too, love that embossing folder, the forever fern collection, and your color combination.
