Dreamy, ethereal background designs from the Thoughtful Journey Designer Series Paper are perfect backgrounds for the Mallards Ducks in the Stampin' Up! Feathered Flight Stamp Set.  This designer series paper print is a soothing color palette of Mossy Meadow, Fresh Freesia, Petunia Pop, and Wild Wheat.  The Mallards and sentiment are stamped in Mossy Meadow Ink. The sentiment label is from the Unbounded Love Dies, and the large Mallard is fussy cut and popped up on Dimensionals.  The Rectangle Stitched Dies create the layers from the thoughtful Journey Designer Series Paper.  Accents include Petunia Pop Adhesive-backed Pearl trio, which is part of the Thoughtful Journey Suite Collection.  While the elements in the Thoughtful Journey Suite Collection creates beautiful floral cards with delicate stamped and die cut foliage, selecting elements such as the Mallards from the Feathered Flight Stamp Set transforms this suite for masculine cards with the greenery scenes.    



Duck-themed greeting card using Stampin' Up! Feathered Flight Stamp Set and Thoughtful Journey Designer Series Paper



The basecard for today's card is Mossy Meadow Cardstock. Then a 6" X 6" print from the Thoughtful Journey paper is cut to create two layers.  The largest layer is 4" X 5-1/4".  Then, a Mossy Meadow matte layer is created using one of the stitched rectangles from the retired Stitched Rectangles Die., Or, you could also use the Deckled Rectangles Dies, an Online Exclusive.  The same Stitched Rectangle die is used to die cut the center out of the Thoughtful Journey Designer Series Paper layer, and then 1/8" is cut off each side of the Designer Series Paper so it is slightly smaller than the Mossy Meadow matte. This way, your Designer Series Paper print lines up perfectly across the card front.

Using the Feathered Flight Stamp Set and Mossy Meadow Ink, stamp the three small birds onto the Designer Series Print.  Then stamp one of the larger ducks onto a piece of Basic White Cardstock, fussy cut it and pop it up on Dimensionals.  While the Feathered Flight Stamp Set is a retired Online Exclusive Stamp Set, an ideal substitute is the current Adventurous Sky Stamp Set and Dies, the Hummingbird from Thoughtful Expressions Stamp Set, or florals from Thoughtful Wishes Stamp Set and Dies, which are part of the thoughtful Journey Suite.

    To finish the card, a sentiment label of Basic White Cardstock and a matte of Mossy Meadow Cardstock was cut using the Unbounded Love Dies.  The one die cuts both the inner section of Basic White and the outer border matte of Mossy Meadow.  A sentiment from Unbounded Love is stamped in Mossy Meadow ink onto the Basic White label. Two Petunia Pop Adhesive Pearl-backed Trio elements adorn the upper right side of the card.
