Good Thursday morning stamping friends and welcome to our Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop. If you are starting with me, thank you, I hope you will stop by everyone’s blog to see what they have created this week. If you are hopping over from Akiko’s blog, thank you for stopping by. This week we have Color Challenge. 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 using this week’s colors.

I used the new Stampin’ Up! Online Exclusive Year of Flowers Bundle along with the Wildflower Birthday Specialty Designer Series Paper for my card today.

There are our colors for this week

Adhere a panel of Wildflower Birthday DSP to the front of the 4 1/4″ X 4 1/4″ Basic White Thick card base using Liquid Glue. Adhere another panel of Wildflower Birthday DSP to the Basic White Thick mat using Stampin’ Seal. Adhere the layered panel to the front of the card base using Liquid Glue.

Adhere some of the smaller flowers from the Wildflower Birthday DSP to the floral bouquet from the Wildflower Birthday DSP using Stampin’ Dimensionals. Tie a knot using the Gold 1 1/2″ Woven Trim and adhere it to the card front using a Glue Dot. Adhere the bouquet over the trim to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

On a panel of Basic White, stamp the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Year of Flowers Cling Stamp Set in Pretty in Pink Ink. Cut the sentiment out using the Year of Flowers Dies. Adhere the sentiment to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. Add a few Party Dots to the card front.

On a panel of Basic White, stamp the sentiment from the Year of Flowers stamp set in Pretty in Pink Ink. Adhere a few small flowers from the Wildflower Birthday DSP to the corners of the panel. Adhere the Basic White panel to a Soft Sea Foam mat then to the inside of the Basic White Thick card base.

Decorate a Basic White Medium Envelope to complete the card. Stamp a couple of the flower images from Year of Flowers stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on the envelope front. Color the images using Old Olive, Peach Pie, Pool Party, Pretty in Pink and Soft Sea Foam Stampin’ Blends Markers. Adhere a panel of Wildflower Birthday DSP to the envelope flap.
