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 amazing 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”.  We can interpret this however we want.  Here’s my card for today.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Tulip Fields Bundle along with the Stampin’ Up! Flowering Tulips Photopolymer Stamp Set for my card today.

I started by stamping the double triangle image from the Stampin’ Up!Tulip Fields Photopolymer Stamp Set in Poppy Parade Ink on a panel of Basic White card stock.  Then I stamped the large triangle image from the Tulip Fields stamp set in Polished Pink, Calypso Coral and Petal Pink Inks on the Basic White panel.  I adhered a piece of Post-It Note Tape along the edge of the stamped images and using my Blending Brush I add Balmy Blue Ink to the top of the Basic White panel.  I stamped the small tree image from the Tulip Fields stamp set in Pear Pizzazz Ink. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Polished Pink mat using Stampin’ Seal and then to a Basic Black card base using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

On a panel of Basic White cardstock, I stamped the windmill image from the Tulip Fields stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink. I stamped the cloud images from the Tulip Fields stamp set in Balmy Blue Ink. I cut the images out using my Windmill Fileds Dies. I colored the windmill in using my Crumb Cake Stampin’ Blends Markers and adhered it to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I adhered the clouds to the top of the panel using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

On a panel of Basic White cardstock, I stamped the sentiment from the Flowering Tulips stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink. I cut the sentiment out using my Ornate Frames Dies. I adhered a length of the Evening Evergreen 3/8″ Windowpane Check Ribbon to the card front with a small amount of Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the sentiment over the ribbon using Stampin’ Dimensionals. From a panel of Basic Black cardstock, I cut out the bicycle die from the Windmill Fields Dies and adhered it to the card front using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I added a couple Champagne Rhinestone Basic Jewels to the bicycle tires and a Brushed Brass Butterfly to the sentiment.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Flowering Tulips stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on a Basic White panel. I stamped the tulip stems from the Flowering Tulips stamp set in Pear Pizzazz Ink on the side of the panel. I stamped the tulip images from the Flowering Tulips stamp set in Polished Pink and Poppy Parade Ink on the stems. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Polished Pink mat and then to the inside of the Basic Black card base.

To complete my card, I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the strip of tulips from the Tulip Fields stamp set in Polished Pink Ink across the bottom front of the envelope. I stamped the tulip stems and leaves from the Flowering Tulips stamp set in Pear Pizzazz Ink on the envelope flap. I stamped the tulips from the Flowering Tulips stamp set in Poppy Parade, Polished Pink and Calypso Coral Ink on the envelope flap.
