Good Thursday morning stamping friends 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 the awesome projects they have created this week. If you are hopping over from Mary’s blog, thank you for stopping by. This week we have a Sketch Challenge to work with. If you’d like to see a quick video on how I made this card, Click Here to go to my Instagram Reels. Here is my card using this week’s sketch.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Fern & Flora Bundle, Moonlit Flora Designer Series Paper and Vellum for my card today.

This is our sketch for this week

Adhere a panel of Moonlit Flora DSP to the front of a Peaceful Pine card base. Brush the moth image on the smaller panel of Moonlit Flora DSP using the Clear Wink of Stella Brush.

Using the Fern & Flora Dies, cut 3 of the dies from a panel of Vellum. Adhere the die cut panels to a smaller panel of Moonlit Flora DSP. Adhere the layered panel to a Golden Glow mat. Adhere the layered panel to the card front.

On a panel of Basic Whtie, stamp the frame image from the Fern & Flora stamp set in Golden Glow Ink. Stamp the sentiment form the Fern & Flora stamp set in Peaceful Pine Ink inside the frame. Cut the sentiment out using the Fern & Flora Dies. Adhere the sentiment to the card front with Stampin’ Dimensionals. Add a few 2026-2028 In-Color Dots to the card front.

Stamp the sentiment from Fern & Flora stamp set in Peaceful Pine Ink on a panel of Basic White. Stamp the large fern image from the Fern & Flora stamp set in Peaceful Pine Ink, stamping off once on scrap paper, on the bottom of the panel. Stamp the moth image from the Fern & Flora stamp set in Golden Glow Ink next to the sentiment. Adhere the Basic Whtie panel to a Golden Glow mat then to the inside of the Peaceful Pine card base.

Decorate a Basic White Medium Envelope to complete your card. Stamp the large fern image from the Fern & Flora stamp set in Peaceful Pine Ink, stamping off once on scrap paper, on the envelope front. Stamp the moth image from the Fern & Flora stamp set in Golden Glow Ink by the fern. Adhere a panel of Moonlit Flora DSP to the envelope flap.
