Good Thursday morning my stamping friends. How is everyone doing today? Welcome to the Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop. If you are hopping over from Akiko, thank you for stopping by my blog. This week we had a Sketch Challenge. Be sure to hop around to see everyone’s beautiful projects .
Here is the sketch we had to work from.
Here’s my card using this sketch.
My colors for my card today were inspired by Hand Stamped Sentiments Challenge #339. Here are their colors.
I started by stamping the large flower image from the Stampin’ Up! Ornate Style Cling Stamp Set in Tuxedo Black Memento Ink on a Whisper White panel. I colored the image in using my Light Crumb Cake, Mint Macaron, Rococo Rose and Seaside Spray Stampin’ Blends Markers. I cut the image out using the largest die from the Ornate Layers Dies.
I adhered the panel to a Mint Macaron card front using Snail. I adhered a thin strip of Mint Macaron across the top of the panel using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I wrapped a piece of Rococo Rose 1/2″ Scalloped Linen Ribbon around the top of the panel securing it in the back using Glue Dots.
I adhered the card front to a Mint Macaron card base using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a few retiring Seaside Spray 2019-2021 In-Color Faceted Dots to the card front.
On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Peaceful Moments Cling Stamp Set in Tuxedo Black Memento Ink in the center of a Whisper White panel. Using one of the Ornate Layers Dies I cut out on either side of the sentiment. I adhered the Whisper White panel to a Rococo Rose mat using Snail and then to the inside of the Mint Macaron card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.
To finish my card I decorated a Medium Whisper White Envelope. I stamped the small flower cluster from the Ornate Style stamp set on the envelope front in Tuxedo Black Memento Ink. I colored the images in using my Mint Macaron, Rococo Rose and Seaside Spray Stampin’ Blends Markers. I stamped the small flower image from the Ornate Style stamp set in Tuxedo Black Memento Ink on the envelope flap and colored them in with my Mint Macaron and Seaside Spray Stampin’ Blends Markers.
