Good Friday morning my fellow stampers. How was your week? Are you ready for the weekend? Is anyone going to do anything fun? I’m hoping to get some craft time in after working today and Saturday.
For today’s card I used the Stampin’ Up Birthday Statements Stamp Set. I love the large image that makes the whole card. I don’t know about you, but I’m ready for spring and I seem to be using more springy colors lately. Here’s my card for today.
I joined in with the Inspire. Create. colour challenge #037. Be sure to stop by to see the projects and to play along. Here are their beautiful pastel colors.
I started with a panel of Whisper White cardstock and stamped the image from Birthday Statements in Tuxedo Black Memento Ink. I colored the image in using my Daffodil Delight, Mint Macaron and Pool Party Stampin’ Blends Markers. Using my Big Shot I cut the image out with the 3rd largest Rectangle Stitched Framelits Dies. Then using the 2nd largest Rectangle Stitched Framelits Dies I cut out a Daffodil Delight mat. I adhered the artwork to the Daffodil Delight mat using Snail.
I adhered Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back of the matted artwork and swirled Silver Metallic Thread so that it was just overlapping the sides and peeking out. I then adhered the artwork to a Pool Party card base. I stamped the small sentiment from the Birthday Statements stamp set on a scrap of Whisper White cardstock in Mint Macaron Ink and punched it out using the Classic Label Punch. I adhered the punched sentiment to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added some Daffodil Delight Gingham Gala Adhesive Back Sequins to the artwork and 2 Mint Macaron Faceted Dots to the punched sentiment.
On the inside I wanted to match the flowers the best I could to the card front image. I found similar flowers in the Stampin’ Up Lovely Latice Stamp Set (FREE Sale-A-Bration item). I stamped 3 flowers in each corner of a Whisper White panel in Tuxedo Black Memento Ink and colored them in with my Daffodil Delight, Mint Macaron and Pool Party Stampin’ Blends Markers. I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up Itty Bitty Birthday Stamp Set in Mint Macaron Ink in the center of the Whisper White panel. I adhered the Whisper White panel to the inside of the Pool Party card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.
To finish my card I decorated a Medium Whisper White Envelope. I stamped 3 of the small flower images from the Lovely Lattice stamp set in Tuxedo Black Memento Ink on the envelope front and the envelope flap. I colored them in the same as I did on the card.
Thank you for stopping by my blog today. I hope you liked my card and will give it a try. I hope you all have a wonderful weekend. Happy Stamping!!

Paper Pumpkin is turning six and we want to celebrate with you! After all, we could not have shared all these years of creativity if it weren’t for our subscribers.
To celebrate this fun occasion and to thank everyone who supports Paper Pumpkin month after month, we’re offering a specially-designed March kit and a FREE STAMP SET. Oh, yes. You read that right. In March, you will receive TWO stamp sets with your Paper Pumpkin kit.
There has never been a better time to give Paper Pumpkin a try. And because it’s our sixth birthday celebration, we’ll be pulling out all the stops. You’ll get an adorable kit, a special box, and most importantly, you’ll get TWO stamp sets instead of one.
$20 for a Paper Pumpkin kit is always a steal, but in March the deal is even better! There has never been a better time for you to join Paper Pumpkin.
Because it’s our birthday, we decided to create a kit that is perfect for making birthday cards!
The March kit features eight full-sized, mailable cards
Coordinating colors are Basic Black, Bermuda Bay, Daffodil Delight, Flirty Flamingo, and Poppy Parade
This kit has an element that is sure to “pop”!
The FREE stamp set is even bigger and better than your typical Paper Pumpkin stamp set and can be used on a variety of crafting projects.
A subscriber must have an active subscription by March 10, 2019 in order to receive the March kit.
The FREE stamp set coordinates with the March kit but it is not needed to complete the projects.
Supplies may be limited toward the end of the subscription period, so DON’T WAIT.
