Good Thursday morning my stamping friends! Welcome to our Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop. I hope everyone is doing well today. If you are hopping over from Akiko Sudano’s blog, thank you for stopping by my blog. This week we have a Sketch Challenge. I can’t wait to see what everyone has created this week. Be sure to take a moment to hop around to see everyone’s beautiful projects. Here is my card using this weeks Sketch.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Eden’s Garden Cling Stamp Set along with the Ever Eden Specialty Designer Series Paper for my card today.

This is our sketch for this week.

I started by adhering a panel of the Ever Eden DSP to an Evening Evergreen card base. I adhered a smaller panel of the Ever Eden DSP to a Gold Foil mat and then to the card front using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

On a panel of Basic White cardstock I made my own background paper by stamping the leaf images from the Eden’s Garden stamp set in Evening Evergreen and Soft Succulent Inks randomly on the panel. I adhered the panel to a Gold Foil mat which I cut using my Stitched Rectangle Dies. I wrapped a piece of Evening Evergreen 3/8″ Open Weave Ribbon around the panel and tied a bow. I adhered the panel to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

On a small panel of Soft Succulent cardstock I stamped the sentiment from the Eden’s Garden stamp set and cut it our using my Stitched So Sweetly Dies. I adhered the sentiment to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a few Garden Gems to the card front.

On the inside I stamped the sentiments from the Stampin’ Up! Biggest Wish Photopolymer Stamp Set in Evening Evergreen and Soft Succulent Inks on a Basic White panel. I randomly stamped the leaf images from the Eden’s Garden stamp set in Evening Evergreen and Soft Succulent Inks around the sentiment. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Soft Succulent mat and then to the inside of the Evening Evergreen card base.

To complete my card, I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the leaf images from the Eden’s Garden stamp set in Evening Evergreen & Soft Succulent Inks on the envelope front. I adhered a panel of Ever Eden DSP to the envelope flap.
