Good Monday morning stamping friends and welcome to a new week. How was everyone’s weekend? I’ve been MIA for the last couple days. We got home from vacation around 1am on Wednesday morning. Unfortunately, I came home with a sinus infection. Between that, jet lag and having to get right back to working, I was wiped out. I’m hoping to feel more like myself in the next couple days.

I just love playing with the stamp sets that come with stencils. I love the way the shading looks using the same color ink and being able to color so quickly. If you’d like to see a quick video of how I made this card, Click Here to go to my Instagram Reels. Here is my card for today.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Layers of Beauty Bundle along with the Birch Wood 3D Embossing Folder, Stampin’ Up! Country Birdhouse Photopolymer Stamp Set and Online Exclusive Greetings of The Season Dies for my card today.

I played along with Just Us Girls Challenge #750 – Stencil Week.

Emboss a Basic White card front using the Birch Wood EF. Adhere the card front to a Basic White Thick card base using Liquid Glue.

On a panel of Basic White, stamp the large flower image from the Stampin’ Up! Layers of Beauty Photopolymer Stamp Set in Pebbled Path Ink. Starting with Layers of Beauty Decorative Mask 1, add Moody Mauve Ink using a Blending Brush. Next using the Layers of Beauty Mask 2 and add more Moody Mauve Ink using the Blending Brush. Using mask 3 add Blackberry Bliss Ink using the Blending Brush. Add Old Olive Ink using Masks 4 & 5 using a Blending Brush. Cut the large image out using the Layers of Beauty Dies. Using the Layers of Beauty Dies, cut the leaves from a panel of Old Olive.

Adhere the large flower image to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. Add the leaves under the large flower image using Liquid Glue. On a panel of Basic White, stamp the sentiment from the Country Birdhouse stamp set in Blackberry Bliss Ink. Cut the sentiment out using the Greetings of the Season Dies. Thread a piece of the Gold Twisted Thread (available November 5th), through the die and tie a bow. Adhere the sentiment to the card front using Glue Dots. Add a few Regal Foiled Adhesive-Backed Dots to the card front.

On a panel of Basic White, stamp the sentiments from the Country Birdhouse stamp set in Blackberry Bliss Ink. Stamp the small flower image from the Layers of Beauty stamp set in Pebbled Path Ink on the panel. Color the images using Old Olive and Moody Mauve Stampin’ Blends Markers. Adhere the Basic White panel to a Blackberry Bliss mat then to the inside of the Basic White Thick card base.

Finish the card by decorating a Basic White Medium Envelope. Stamp the small flower image from the Layers of Beauty stamp set in Pebbled Path Ink on the envelope front and flap. Color the images using Old Olive and Moody Mauve Stampin’ Blends Markers.

Thank you for stopping by my blog today. I hope you like the card, and you’ll give it a try. Happy Stamping!!
