Good Sunday morning my stamping friends. How is everyone’s weekend going? I worked all day yesterday and I’ll be working at the dog boutique today.

I have a quick and easy card with a simple layout for you today using a set that I haven’t pulled out in a while. Here’s my card for today.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Timeless Tropical Cling Stamp Set for my card today.

I started by stamping the large hibiscus flower from the Timeless Tropical stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on a panel of Basic White cardstock. I masked the image using a Post-It note and stamped the leaf image from the Timeless Tropical stamp set around the flower.

I colored the flower in using my Polished Pink Stampin’ Blends Markers and the leaves in using my Just Jade Stampin’ Blends Markers. I brushed the flower using my Clear Wink of Stella to give it a shimmer. I stamped the sentiment from the Timeless Tropical stamp set on the top of the panel in Tuxedo Black Ink. I adhered the artwork to a Just Jade mat using Stampin’ Seal.

I adhered the matted panel to a Basic White card front using Stampin’ Seal and then to the front of a Basic White card base using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a few Matte Black Dots to the card front.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Timeless Tropical stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink in the center of a Basic White panel. I stamped the leaf image from the Timeless Tropical stamp set on the sides of the panel and colored them in using my Just Jade Stampin’ Blends Markers. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Just Jade mat using Stampin’ Seal and then to the inside of the Basic White card base using Stampin’ Seal.

To finish my card I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the hibiscus and the leaves from the Timeless Tropical stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on the envelope front. I colored the images in using my Just Jade and Polished Pink Stampn’ Blends Markers. I adhered a panel of the Just Jade 2020-2022 6 X 6 In-Color 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!!
