Alphabet Challenge has a new theme for you – “Q is for Quote.” I love quotes and am known for using them on my kids to prove my point. Once in a while, I can even say them right! LOL My son has even told me that he would love to have a book of my favorite quotes so I was thinking of journaling them. But how do I make a card with my quotes without a stamp?? Well, luckily I had one in my non-Stampin’ Up! stamp collection! I paired it with the Love of Leaves stamp set and the Meadow Moments embossing folder. Didn’t it turn out nice?
My secrets to making this Quiet Meadow project
- First, this 6″ square card started with Pretty Peacock cardstock, cut at 12″ x 6″ and scored at 6.”
- I used Forever Greenery DSP to cover the card base.
- A 4 1/2″ panel of Whisper White was dry embossed with the Meadow Moments embossing folder. I haven’t used it before but this won’t be the last time – Love it! Lastly, I layered it onto Pretty Peacock cardstock.
Now, the FUN Part!
- Using a Gina Marie Designs die, I cut out “Blessings” with two colors of cardstock – Just Jade and Pretty Peacock – and adhered them together.
- I stamped the quote in Pretty Peacock, then cropped with the Stitched Rectangle die. Once popped up with dimensionals, I then placed the “Blessings” above it.
- The beautiful large leaf was stamped with Pretty Peacock ink and cropped with both coordinating dies, then I popped it up with dimensionals.
- Lastly, my Finishing Touch is a pretty little gold bow made with gold trim.

MEADOW MOMENTS EMBOSSING FOLDERS
Whether it’s stopping to smell the roses or pausing as a butterfly floats by, make the most of every moment. The Meadow Moments Embossing Folders will help you capture those memories on paper in the form of a standout card or easy kid’s craft. This set of two embossing folders fits perfectly with our portable Mini Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine. * 2 folders
* 6-1/4″ x 3-3/8″ (15.9 x 8.6 cm)
