Sometimes the most meaningful cards begin with a simple idea—and a little creative spark from a fellow crafter. I was so inspired by a design shared by S. Campfield as part of the “Launch Your Creativity” event, and I knew I had to try my own take using the Coneflower Celebrations stamp set. That event truly lived up to its name—I felt encouraged, energized, and ready to put ink to cardstock.
Starting with just one ink color—Strawberry Slush—and Basic White cardstock, I created a card that is easy, elegant, and absolutely stunning. I began by stamping the large coneflower image toward the top center of a Basic White panel, letting that beautiful bloom take the spotlight. I used the fun “sprinkles” image above the flower reaching up to the right corner, and below the flower stem down toward the lower left. The result? A sense of movement and joy radiating out from the center.
The sentiment, “Thank You,” was stamped on a small scrap of Basic White and layered on a tiny Strawberry Slush mat. It’s a small touch that adds polish and focus. The main panel is also matted with Strawberry Slush and adhered to a Thick Basic White card base. Inside the card, a coordinating panel of Basic White surrounded by a Strawberry Slush mat finishes it all off with a clean and cohesive look.
I loved this layout so much, I had to try it with other color combinations. Old Olive made for a natural, earthy feel. Smoky Slate with Memento Tuxedo Black created a timeless and classic design. Secret Sea brought a soft and calming look, while Azure Afternoon made everything pop with bright, joyful energy. The Coneflower Celebrations stamp set makes it so easy to create multiple cards in different moods and styles—it’s packed with beautiful images and useful sentiments that fit so many occasions.
Each of these cards took very little time to create but delivered such a big impact. If you’re looking for a simple design that lets your stamps and colors shine, this one is a must-try.
