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 Color 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 colors.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Scalloped Blooms Bundle, Bloom Boutique Specialty Designer Series Paper and the Stampin’ Up! Boutique Blossoms Stamp Set for my card today.

These are out colors for this week

Adhere 2 panels of Bloom Boutique DSP to a panel of Gold Foil. Adhere the layered panel to the front of the Hydrangea Hue card base.

Stamp the sentiment from the Scalloped Blooms stamp set in Hydrangea Hue Ink on a panel of Basic White. Cut the sentiment out using the Scalloped Blooms Dies. Adhere the sentiment to the top of the panel with Stampin’ Dimensionals.

Using the Scalloped Blooms Dies cut the smaller flower from panels of Barely Blush and Crisp Cantaloupe. Cut the larger flower from a panel of Golden Glow and the 2 leaf dies from a panel of Peaceful Pine. Using the Barely Blush, Crisp Cantaloupe and Golden Glow Shimmer Brushes, color the center of the flowers. Adhere the flowers to the card front with Stampin’ Dimensionals. Adhere the leaves under the flowers using Glue Dots. Add a few 2026-2028 In-Color Butterflies to the card front.

Stamp the sentiments from the Scalloped Blooms stamp set in Hydrangea Hue Ink on a panel of Basic White. Stamp the large outline flower image from the Boutique Blossoms stamp set in Golden Glow Ink on the bottom of the panel. Stamp the large solid flower image in Golden Glow Ink, stamping off once on scrap paper, over the outlined image. Stamp the outlined leaf image from the Boutique Blossoms stamp set in Peaceful Pine Ink by the flower and the solid leaf image in Peaceful Pine Ink, stamping off once on scrap paper, over the outlined leaf images. Stamp the smaller outlined flower image from the Boutique Blossoms stamp set in Crisp Cantaloupe Ink on the top of the panel and the small solid flower in Crisp Cantaloupe Ink, stamping off once on scrap paper, over the outlined image. Adhere the Basic White panel to a Golden Glow mat then to the inside of the Hydrangea Hue card base.

Decorate a Basic White Medium Envelope to complete your card. Stamp the large flower image from the Boutique Blossoms stamp set in Golden Glow Ink and the smaller outlined flower image in Crisp Cantaloupe Ink on the envelope front. Stamp the outline leaf image in Peaceful Pine Ink. Stamp the solid images in the same color inks, stamping off once on scrap paper, over the coordinating outlined images. Adhere a panel of Bloom Boutique DSP to the envelope flap.
