Good Monday morning stamping friends, welcome to a new week and the last few days of April. How was everyone’s weekend? Tara and I had our April online class yesterday and had a great time creating cards with those who signed up.

I played with Online Exclusive products for today’s card. If you’d like to see a quick video on how I made this card, Click Here to go to my Instagram Reels. Here’s my card for today.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Online Exclusive Paradise Garden Bundle along with the Poetry Garden Designer Series Paper for my card today.

My design is from Freshly Made Sketches Challenge #733

Adhere a panel of Poetry Garden DSP to the front of a Poppy Parade card base. Randomly stamp the dotted image from the Paradise Garden stamp set on a smaller panel of Poetry Garden DSP in Crushed Curry Ink. Emboss the smaller panel of Poetry Garden DSP using the Paradise Garden Hybrid EF.

Adhere the embossed panel to a Poppy Parade mat. Adhere the layered panel to the card front. On a panel of Basic White, stamp the large leaf image from the Paradise Garden stamp set in Peaceful Pine Ink. Stamp the flower images in Poppy Parade Ink. Cut the images out using the Paradise Garden Dies.

Adhere the die cut leaf image to the card front with Stampin’ Dimensionals. Adhere the die cut flowers on the leaf image with Glue Dots. Stamp the sentiment form the Paradise Garden stamp set in Poppy Parade Ink on a panel of Basic White. Cut the sentiment out using the Paradise Garden Dies. Adhee the sentiment to the card front with Stampin’ Dimensionals. Add a few Garden Epoxy Dots to the flower centers.

Stamp the sentiment from the Paradise Garden stamp set in Poppy Parade Ink on a panel of Basic White. Stamp the large leaf image from the Paradise Garden stamp set in Peaceful Pine Ink on the corners of the panel and the dotted image in Crushed Curry Ink. Adhere the Basic White panel to a Poppy Parade Two-Tone mat then to the inside of the Poppy Parade card base.

Decorate a Basic White Medium Envelope to finish your card. Stamp the small flower image from the Paradise Garden stamp set in Poppy Parade Ink on the envelope front. Stamp the leaf images from the Paradise Garden stamp set in Peaceful Pine Ink by the flower. Adhere a panel of Poetry Garden DSP to the envelope flap.

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