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 Jillian Good’s blog, welcome to my blog and thank you for stopping by. The theme this month is “Birthday”. We can interpret this however we want. Here’s my card for today.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Biggest Wish Photopolymer Stamp Set for my card along with the Patterned Party Host Designer Series Paper.

I started by adhering a panel of the Patterned Party DSP to a Basic Black card base using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered another panel of the Patterned Party DSP to a Basic White mat using Stampin’ Seal and then to the card front using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

On a panel of Basic White cardstock I stamped the sentiment from the Biggest Wish stamp set 3 times, using my Stamparatus, in Flirty Flamingo Ink. I stamped the sentiment from the Biggest Wish stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on the bottom, partially overlapping the last ‘Happy’. I embossed the panel using my Tasteful Textile 3D Embossing Folder.

I adhered the embossed panel to a Basic Black mat using Multipurpose Liquid Glue and then to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a few Black Matte Dots to the card front.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Happiest of Birthdays Cling Stamp Set in Tuxedo Black Ink in the center of a Basic White panel. I adhered a strip of the Patterned Party DSP to the bottom of the panel using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Flirty Flamingo mat using Stampin’ Seal and then to the inside of the Basic Black card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

To complete my card I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I adhered a strip of the Patterned Party 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.
