Elegant Layers & Thoughtful Words | Featuring the Beautiful Gallery Suite
There’s something deeply soothing about painting with paper—layering textures, tones, and tiny details until a card feels like a work of art. Today’s creation is just that. Using the Beautiful Gallery Suite, I crafted this greeting card with soft, moody florals and a layered design that feels timeless and comforting.
💌 Front & Center:
The front of the card features a painterly floral background paired with a creative corner fold technique—perfect for spotlighting a sentiment. I used the “HELLO” greeting embossed in white on black cardstock to contrast the dreamy rose tones. A double ribbon accent (a soft cream ribbon layered with linen thread) adds movement and softness. A few Pressed Flower Motifs dots finish off the look with just the right touch of dimension.
🌿 Inside the Card:
The coordinating interior carries the same floral motif as a frame, gently surrounding the stamped sentiment:
“You’ve been on my mind”
It’s a heartfelt message that speaks volumes—whether you’re sending it to a friend, loved one, or someone who just needs to feel remembered.

This suite has quickly become a favorite for sympathy cards, thinking-of-you notes, or just a simple hello. The versatility of the dark florals allows for both dramatic contrast and gentle emotion, depending on how you use it.
💫 Craft Tip from the Wolf Den:
Try flipping the corner fold technique for a completely different look! It’s a great way to stretch your design skills while using up scrap cardstock or DSP.
