Good Monday morning my fellow stampers. How was everyone’s weekend? Did anyone do anything fun? It was a nice sunny weekend here for a change. Saturday was a little windy and chilly, but Sunday felt like a spring day. It’s suppose to be even warmer here today, 69 I think. Spring’s on it’s way.
For today’s card I used a FREE stamp set from Sale-A-Bration and a FREE punch from Sale-A- Bration, with qualifying orders. I also used 4 of the 5 2018-2020 In-Colors which will be retiring in June. If you are loving any of these colors, grab them while you still can. I believe this is the most colors I’ve ever used on one card. Here’s my card.
I played along with Just Add Ink Challenge #495. Their colors are Add A Rainbow. I believe I have a rainbow with this card for sure.
I also played along with Watercooler Wednesday Challenge #261. Here is their theme.
I started by stamping the large flower image from the Stampin’ Up! Thoughtful Blooms Photopolymer Stamp Set, which is a FREE item with a qualifying purchase from Sale-A-Bration, in Poppy Parade, Grapefruit Grove, Pineapple Punch and Gorgeous Grape Inks on a panel of Whisper White cardstock. I cut the rainbow of flowers out using my Small Blooms Punch which is another FREE item with a qualifying purchase from Sale-A- Bration.
On a panel of Whisper White cardstock I stamped the large leafy image from the Thoughtful Blooms stamp set in Call Me Clover Ink across the panel. I stamped the small leaf image from the Thoughtful Blooms stamp set in Call Me Clover Ink randomly around. I randomly stamped the medium and small flower images from the Thoughtful Blooms stamp set in Blueberry Bushel, Gorgeous Grape, Grapefruit Grove, Pineapple Punch and Poppy Parade Inks around the leafy image.
I stamped the sentiment from the Thoughtful Blooms stamp set in Blueberry Bushel Ink on the bottom right corner of the panel. I adhered the Whisper White panel to a Blueberry Bushel mat using Snail and then to a Thick Whisper White card base using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I adhered the large punched flowers to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added Blueberry Bushel Rhinestones from the Noble Peacock Rhinestones to the large flower centers. I added Pineapple Punch Happiness Blooms Enamel Dots to the medium flower centers.
On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Band Together Cling Stamp Set in Blueberry Bushel Ink in the center of a Whisper White panel. I stamped the large flower image from the Thoughtful Blooms stamp set in Gorgeous Grape and Poppy Parade Inks on either side of the sentiment. I stamped the greens and leaf image from the Thoughtful Blooms stamp set in Call Me Clover Ink around the flowers. I stamped the small dot flower image from the Thoughtful Blooms stamp set in Grapefruit Grove and Pineapple Punch Inks on the greens. I adhered the Whisper White panel to a Blueberry Bushel mat using Snail and then to the inside of the Thick Whisper White card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.
To finish my card I decorated a Medium Whisper White Envelope. I stamped the large flower image from the Thoughtful Blooms stamp set in Poppy Parade Ink on the bottom front of the envelope. I stamped the greens and leaves image from the Thoughtful Blooms stamp set around the flower in Call Me Clover Ink. I stamped the dot flower image from the Thoughtful Blooms stamp set in Gorgeous Grape, Grapefruit Grove and Pineapple Punch Inks on the greens. I adhered a panel of Poppy Parade Brights 6 X 6 Designer Series Paper to the envelope flap.
Thank you for stopping by my blog today. I hope you liked my card and will give it a try. Happy Stamping!!
