Good Tuesday morning stamping friends. I hope your week has started off well. Our heat wave is over now we’re back to cool and rainy. We are in desperate need of the rain.
Today’s card I used a different technique that I haven’t done in a while. I’m going to be doing this one along with 3 other techniques tonight at my in person class. 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! Nature’s Symphony Stamp Set for my card today.

Using a Clear Block, dip it first in Lemon Lolly Ink. Using the Stampin’ Spritzer, spritz the block from about 8″ away. Stamp the block on a panel of Basic White. Using a Clear Block again, dip it in Barely Blush Ink. Using the Stampin’ Spritzer, spritz the block from about 8″ away. Stamp the block on the panel of Basic White above the Lemon Lolly stamp. Repeat this again with the Barely Blush, stamping below the Lemon Lolly stamp.

Stamp the large leaf image from the Nature’s Symphony stamp set in Soft Sea Foam Ink across the inked images. Adhere the Basic White panel to a Soft Sea Foam mat. Adhere the layered panel to a Barely Blush card base.

Stamp the sentiment from the Nature’s Symphony stamp set in Soft Sea Foam Ink on a panel of Basic White. Fussy cut the sentiment using Detailed Scissors. Adhere the sentiment to the card front with Stampin’ Dimensionals. Add a few 2026-2028 In-Color Butterflies to the card front.

Stamp the sentiment from the Nature’s Symphony stamp set in Soft Sea Foam Ink on a panel of Basic White. Stamp the large leaf image from the Nature’s Symphony stamp set in Soft Sea Foam Ink, stamping off once on scrap paper, over the sentiment. Adhere the Basic Whtie panel to a Soft Sea Foam mat then to the inside of the Barely Blush card base.

Decorate a Basic White Medium Envelope to finish the card. Stamp the large leaf image from the Nature’s Symphony stamp set in Soft Sea Foam Ink on the envelope front and flap.

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

Register for Pretty Poinsettia Christmas in July Online Class Ends Friday
Tara and I are teaming up to offer a Christmas in July Online Class featuring the Stampin’ Up! Pretty Poinsettia Bundle and 2026-2028 In-Color Gingham Gallery DSP. To ensure we can get the products for you the sign-up time is very short. We want to ensure that we are able to get the embossing folders for everyone and the bundle if you wish to order it. We are offering the bundle to you at an additional 10% discount (see price on form). We will be creating 6 different cards during the class including 2 Fun Fold cards. Click Here to register.

The class fee includes:
- Stampin’ Up! Iridescent Pearls Basic Jewels (full pack)
- Seasonal Cheer Mini Embossing Folder
- Pre-cut card kits to complete each card
- Zoom class with complete instructions to complete each card
During sign up you will have the option to add additional items to your order that you can take advantage of at no additional shipping cost. These items are optional, however if you want to recreate the cards you will need them. If you’ve attended a previous class, you were given a discount code, there is a spot to put that code on the form and the discount only applies to the products that you check off that you wish to purchase, not the class. Since the Pretty Poinsettia Bundle is already discounted, the discount does not apply to that.
The class will be held Sunday July 26th from 1 to 4 pm Eastern Time via Zoom. This allows anyone in the United States to participate live! Can’t join us live… no worries, we will record the session so it can be replayed at any time.
I will email written directions that will include directions, cardstock cuts as well as photos to help you create each card.
Class Cost $40 + $10 (Shipping)
Additional purchased items will be included in the above shipping price. I will invoice you through PayPal and invoices must be paid by July 10th to insure I can get the products. Sign up by Clicking Here.
Deadline: Friday July 10th
