Sweet Strawberry Thanks Card 🍓

Today’s card was inspired by a photo challenge featuring a delicious strawberry smoothie. I used the bright Strawberry Slush color to bring that inspiration to life by creating a fun milkshake topped with a big swirl of whipped cream and strawberries.

The playful mix of Designer Series Paper (polka dots, florals, and stripes) adds a fresh and cheerful vibe, making this the perfect thank you card for someone special.

Basic Steps to Create This Card

Card Base
- Start with a standard white card base (8 ½” x 5 ½”, scored at 4 ¼”).
Designer Series Paper Layers
- Cut three strips of coordinating DSP (polka dots, florals, and stripes).
- Adhere them side by side onto the card front for a fun patterned background.
Main Circle Element
- Die cut large stitched circle from white cardstock.
- Stamp and color the milkshake and top with whipped cream.
- Adhere to circle
- Add strawberries for extra detail.
Sentiment
- Adhere it across the circle, slightly overlapping the milkshake image.
- Tie a white ribbon around the card and finish with a bow
- Adhere circle to card
Finishing Touches
