Good Tuesday morning my fellow stampers. Welcome to Amy’s Inkin’ Krew Team Blog Hop. It’s the 2nd Tuesday of the month so that means Blog Hop Day!! If you are starting with me, be sure to hop around to see everyone’s beautiful projects. If you’ve hopped over from Amy Koenders blog, welcome to my blog and thank you for stopping by. The theme this month is “Birthday”. I wanted to make a fun card this month, so I decided to use a new set that I just received from the 2020-2021 Annual Catalog and the new fun DSP. Here’s my card.
I started by adhering a panel of Playing With Patterns 6 X 6 Designer Series Paper to a Purple Posy card front using Stampin’ Seal. There are so many great designs to choose from in this pack of DSP, I had to have my daughter pick for me. I wrapped a piece of the 1/2″ Purple Posy ribbon from the Playing With Patterns Ribbon Combo Pack and tied a bow on the side of the panel.
On a panel of Whisper White cardstock I stamped the largest sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Happiest of Birthdays Cling Stamp Set in Gorgeous Grape Ink. I cut the sentiment out using the largest die from the Stitched So Sweetly Dies. I adhered the cut sentiment to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.
I adhered the card front to a Purple Posy card base using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a few Purple Posy Playing With Pattern Resin Dots to the card front.
On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Happiest of Birthdays stamp set in Gorgeous Grape Ink in the center of a Whisper White panel. I adhered a strip of the Playing With Pattern 6 X 6 DSP to the bottom of the panel. I adhered the Whisper White panel to a Purple Posy mat using Stampin’ Seal and then to the inside of the Purple Posy card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.
To finish my card I decorated a Medium Whisper White Envelope. I adhered a strip of Playing With Patterns 6 X 6 DSP to the envelope front and a panel to the envelope flap.
Thank you for visiting by my blog today. I hope you liked my card and will give it a try. Now that you’ve seen my card, be sure to hop around to see everyone’s beautiful projects.
