Good Tuesday morning my fellow stampers. How has your week started out?
For today’s card I’ve done the White Wash Technique for you. I haven’t done this in a while and I just love how it turns out. Here’s my card.
I’ve played along with a few challenges for today’s card. 1st is ‘Just Us Girls‘ word week challenge # 477. Be sure to stop by to play along and see what everyone has made. Here is their challenge. This one was pretty easy and left a wide variety.
The next one is Paper Craft Crew Simple Stamping Theme Challenge #328. I don’t do simple that often, but I really enjoyed it with this card. This one was a little harder since I’m so used to using multiple layers. Here’s their challenge.
Last was the Sunday Stamps Natures Hues challenge #199. They had a some gorgeous colors to work with. Be sure to stop by and see what everyone has made and play along with their challenge. Here are their colors.
I started by stamping the large image from the Stampin’ Up Lovely Lattice Stamp Set, (Free Sale-A-Bration item), in Versamark Ink on a panel of Crumb Cake cardstock. I immediately sprinkled it with White Stampin’ Emboss Powder and heat set it using my Heat Tool. Using my Aqua Painter I colored the flowers with Craft Whisper White Ink and let it dry throughly. I actually let it go overnight to make sure it was good and dry.
Once it was dry, using my Blender Pens I added color to the flowers starting darker in the middle and blending it out to the edges. I used Flirty Flamingo, Gorgeous Grape and Pacific Point Inks for my flowers and Coastal Cabana Ink for my leaves.
I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up Well Said Stamp Set in Gorgeous Grape Ink on a strip of Whisper White cardstock and made a banner out of it. I adhered the banner to the left side if the card front using Snail. I adhered the card front to a Flirty Flamingo card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I adhered a Gorgeous Grape Glitter Enamel Dot to the sentiment banner and a few Clear Rhinestone Basic Jewels to the card front.
On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Well Said stamp set in Gorgeous Grape Ink in the center of a Whisper White panel. I stamped the smaller flowers from the Lovely Lattice stamp set in Tuxedo Black Memento Ink in the corners and colored them in using my Blender Pen with the same colors as I did on the card front.
I finished my card by decorating a Medium Craft Envelope. Unfortunately these envelopes are no longer available, but it seemed to go beautifully with my card. I stamped the large flower image from the Lovely Lattice stamp set on the front of the envelope and colored it in the same as I did for the card front with my Blender Pen. I stamped the smaller flowers from the same stamp set on the envelope flap and colored them in the same as I did for the inner liner.
Thank you for stopping by my blog today. I hope you liked my card and will give it a try. 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”!

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.
