Stampin’ Up! Flowering Rain Boots

Posted on by

Good Wednesday morning my stamping friends. We’re halfway through the week and on the downhill to the weekend. Hope you are all having a wonderful week.

I was looking through my card stash yesterday and wanted to send a thinking of you card. I realized I don’t have many cards that are for ‘just because’. So, I decided to make one. Have you ever had one of those crafting days that everything goes wrong? It took me 5 tries to get this card right. I knew exactly what I wanted, but it just wouldn’t go on paper that way. Then when I thought I had it, the ink smudged. Tuesday is usually my day to get myself a little ahead, not yesterday. We’ll blame it on the weather. Here’s my card for today.

I used the Stampin” Up! Flowering Rain Boots Bundle along with the Subtle 6 X 6 Designer Series Paper for my card today.

My colors are from Sunday Stamps Sweet Pastels Challenge #281.

I played along with The Paper Players Clean & Simple Challenge #587, April Showers.

I started by stamping the grass image from the Stampin’ Up! Paradise Palms Cling Stamp Set in Mint Macaron Ink along the bottom of a Basic White card front. On a panel of the Subtle DSP I stamped the rain boots image from the Stampin’ Up! Flowering Rain Boots Photopolymer Stamp Set in Blushing Bride Ink. I cut the boots out using my Rain Boots Dies.

I stamped the stem/leaves image from the Flowering Rain Boots stamp set in Soft Sea Foam Ink on the Basic Whtie card front. I stamped the tulip heads image from the Flowering Rain Boots stamp set on the stems in Highland Heather Ink on top of the stem. I adhered the rain boots to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

I stamped the sentiment from the Flowering Rain Boots stamp set in Smoky Slate Ink on the card front. From a strip of Basic White cardstock I cut the cloud looking die from the Basic Borders Dies and adhered it to the top of the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I adhered the card front to a So Saffron mat and then to the front of a Basic White Thick card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I added Silver & Clear Epoxy Essentials that looked like rain drops to the card front.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Flowering Rain Boots stamp set in Smoky Slate Ink on a Basic White panel. I stamped the stem/leaves image from the Flowering Rain Boots stamp set in Soft Sea Foam Ink on the bottom of the panel. I stamped the tulip heads in Highland Heather Ink on top of the stems. I adhered the Basic White panel to a So Saffron mat and then to the inside of the Basic White Thick card base.

To finish my card, I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the stems/leaves image from the Flowering Rain Boots stamp set in Soft Sea Foam Ink on the bottom of the envelope front and the tulips in Highland Heather Ink on the top of the stems. I adhered a panel of Subtle DSP to the envelope flap.

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

Stampin’ Up! Pansy Patch Hello

Posted on by
16

Good Saturday morning my stamping friends and welcome to the weekend. Does anyone have plans? Yesterday we had a gorgeous spring day. It was 60 out and my daughter and I were running errands without coats on. Today, well a little different. It’s cold with a mix of rain and snow. I really wish spring would get here and stay.

Today’s card is one that we made at our team meeting on Tuesday night. Every month we have a virtual team meeting and so Mystery Stamping at the end. It’s a lot of fun. Our upline emails us measurements and then at the end of the meeting she tells us how to put the card together. All of our cards are similar but different. Here’s my card for today.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Pansy Patch Bundle along with the Pansy Petals Designer Series Paper for my card today.

My colors are from Hand Stamped Sentiments Challenge #384.

I started by adhering a panel of Pansy Petals DSP to a Basic White card front. I wrapped a piece of the Fresh Freesia 3/8″ Open Weave Ribbon around the side of the panel and tied a bow.

On the bottom of the panel, I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Pansy Patch Photopolymer Stamp Set in Mint Macaron Ink. I cut a panel of Fresh Freesia cardstock into a banner using my Paper Snips and embossed it using the Checks & Dots Embossing Folder. I adhered the banner to the card front using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

Using my Pansy Dies, I cut the flower and the flower bud from a panel of So Saffron cardstock. I cut the detailed flower outline from a panel of Fresh Freesia cardstock. I cut the stem, 2 leaves and detailed leaves from a panel of Mint Macaron cardstock. I sponged some Mint Macaron Ink on the detailed leave die using my Sponge Dauber. I adhered the detailed flower dies to the solid flower pieces using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I adhered the flower pieces together using Glue Dots. I adhered the leaves behind the flower using Glue Dots. I adhered the flower to the banner panel using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a Pearl Basic Jewel that I colored with my So Saffron Stampin’ Blend Marker in the center of the flower. I added a couple Bumblebee Trinkets to the card front using Glue Dots. I adhered the card front to a Basic Whtie card base using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Pansy Patch stamp set in Mint Macaron Ink on a panel of Basic White cardstock. I stamped the smallest pansy image from the Pansy Patch stamp set in So Saffron Ink on the bottom of the panel. I stamped the pansy outline and center images from the Pansy Patch stamp set in Fresh Freesia Ink over the solid image. I stamped the leaf images from the Pansy Patch stamp set in Mint Macaron Ink on the pansy. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Fresh Freesia mat and then to the inside of the Basic White card base.

To finish my card, I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I adhered a strip of the Pansy Petals DSP to the envelope front and a panel to the envelope flap.

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

Stampin’ Up! Island Vibes CAS Thanks

Good Sunday morning my stamping friends. How is everyone’s weekend going? It’s a bit on the chilly side here. We got that little tease of spring on Thursday and Friday, and I want more lol. I had to work all day yesterday, but last night my upline Jaimie ran a Galentine’s party virtually for us. It was a lot of fun as usual. This is such a great team to be a part of. I’m part of a smaller team and then we have our big team. I would love for you to be a part of it too. Contact me if you are interested in being a part of it @ creativestampingdesigns @gmail.com. Now’s the perfect time to join, see all the details below.

Today’s card uses 3 of the Sale-a-bration items that is only available until Monday along with another one of the 2020-2022 In-Colors that will be retiring soon. Here’s my card for today.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Island Vibes Cling Stamp Set along with the Stampin’ Up! Special Moments Photopolymer Stamp Set and the Sunshine & Rainbows 6 X 6 Designer Series Paper for my card today.

I started by adhering a panel of the Sunshine & Rainbows DSP to a Just Jade card base. I think this soft panel is my favorite of the pack.

On a panel of Basic White cardstock I stamped the palm image from the Island Vibes stamp set in Soft Sea Foam Ink on the top of the panel. I stamped the potted palm tree image from the Island Vibes on the bottom of the panel using my Cinnamon Cider and Just Jade Stampin’ Write Markers. I stamped the sentiment from the Special Moments stamp set in Cinnamon Cider Ink in the center of the panel. I cut the panel using my Stitched Rectangle Dies.

I embossed the Basic White panel using my Tasteful Textile 3D Embossing Folder and adhered the embossed panel to a Just Jade mat. I made a small bow using the Just Jade and Gold 3/8″ Braided Ribbon and adhered it to the panel using Glue Dots. I wrapped the tails around the back of the panel and adhered them with Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the layered panel to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals and added a few Metallic Pearls.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Special Moments stamp set in Cinnamon Cider Ink on a Basic White panel. I stamped the palm image from the Island Vibes stamp set in Soft Sea Foam Ink on the top of the panel. I stamped the potted palm tree image from the Island Vibes stamp set, colored with my Cinnamon Cider and Just Jade Stampin’ Write Markers on the bottom of the panel. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Soft Sea Foam mat and then to the inside of the Just Jade card base.

To finish my card, I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the potted palm tree image from the Island Vibes stamp set on the envelope front. I adhered a panel of the Sunshine & Rainbows DSP on the envelope flap.

Thank you for stopping by my blog today. I hope you like my card today. If these are 3 items that you have been eyeing up, now’s a great time to grab them before they’re gone. Happy Stamping!!

Stampin’ Up! Calming Camellia Stenciled CAS Card

Posted on by
2

Good Monday morning my stamping friends and Happy Valentine’s Day. Who goes out to dinner or still makes plans with your Valentine? Nothing done here at my house. Did you watch the whole Super Bowl? I caught a couple of the commercials, but that was about it.

One more reminder that today is the LAST DAY of my Valentine Special ‘STUCK ON YOU’. Don’t forget to get those orders in before 11:00pm ET in order to get a free adhesive. Details are listed HERE.

I played with something new today for my card and I think I will be playing with them a lot more. Here’s my card for today.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Calming Camellia Cling Stamp Set, which is a Sale-a-bration Host set for my card today. I also used the Butterflies & Flowers Layering Decorative Masks.

I started by stamping the sentiment from the Calming Camellia set on the bottom of a
Basic White panel in Calypso Coral Ink. I arranged the Butterfly & Flowers Layering Decorative Mask just above the sentiment and held it in place with a couple pieces of Post-In Note Tape. Using my Blending Brushes, I added Petal Pink Ink to the floral cluster.

I rotated the Butterfly & Flowers Mask and lined up the flowers from the mask with the flowers on the cardstock, holding it in place with the Post-It Note Tape again. Using my Blending Brush again, I added Petal Pink Ink to the flower cluster.

I adhered the Basic White panel to a Calypso Coral mat and then to a Petal Pink card base. I added a few Champagne Rhinestone Basic Jewels to the card front. I tied a bow using the Petal Pink 5/8″ Organdy Striped Ribbon and adhered it to the card front with a Glue Dot.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Calming Camellia stamp set in Calypso Coral Ink on a Basic White panel. I placed my Butterflies & Flowers Mask over the sentiment and using my Blending Brush I added Petal Pink Ink. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Calypso Coral mat and then to the inside of the Petal Pink card base.

To finish my card, I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. Using my Butterfly & Flowers Mask and Blending Brush, I added Petal Pink Ink to the corner of the envelope front. I adhered a panel of the Subtle 6 X 6 Designer Series Paper to the envelope flap.

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

Stampin’ Up! Calming Camellia CAS

Posted on by
6

Good Sunday morning my stamping friends. Hope your weekend is going well. Who will be watching the Superbowl tonight? I might watch bits and pieces just to catch the commercials. Neither of the teams are the ones my husband roots for, so he really doesn’t care who wins.

Sale-a-bration has some awesome items this time around. I’m loving playing with all of them, but especially one set. I’ve made a few cards for this week using it. Here’s my card for today.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Calming Camellia Cling Stamp Set for my card today.

I played along with Cardz 4 Galz Challenge #166, Use Kraft Card.

I started by stamping the floral image from the Calming Camellia stamp set on a panel of Basic White cardstock in Crumb Cake Ink. I cut the image out using my Scalloped Contour Dies.

I stamped the sentiment from the Calming Camellia stamp set in Crumb Cake Ink on the bottom of the panel. I wrapped a piece of the Crumb Cake Bakers Twine from the Bakers Twine Essential Pack, around the panel and tied a bow.

I embossed a Crumb Cake card front using the Painted Textures 3D Embossing Folder and adhered it to a Crumb Cake card base. I adhered the stamped panel to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a few Brushed Metallic Adhesive-Backed Dots to the card front.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Calming Camellia stamp set in Crumb Cake Ink on a Basic White panel. I stamped the floral image from the Calming Camellia stamp set in Crumb Cake Ink, stamping off once, in the center of the panel over the sentiment. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Crumb Cake mat and then to the inside of the Crumb Cake card base.

To finish my card, I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the floral image from the Calming Camellia stamp set on the envelope front in Crumb Cake Ink. I adhered a panel of Neutrals Designer Series Paper to the envelope flap.

Thank you for stopping by my blog today. I hope you liked my card and will give it a try. This set is available until February 28 as a Sale-a-bration Host item. If you are interested in receiving this set, I’d be happy to set up a Host Code for you and your friends so that maybe you can earn it. Drop me a line if you are interested at creativestampingdesigns@gmail.com Happy Stamping!!

Stampin’ Up! Island Vibes Special Moments

Posted on by
2

Good Saturday morning my stamping friends and welcome to the weekend. I hope you have some fun plans. It’s going to be a chilly one here. My walk to work will be a very quick one, I tend to walk faster when it’s cold outside.

Today and tomorrow’s cards use some Sale-a-bration items again. I can’t believe that Sale-a-bration will be ending in just a little over 3 weeks. Make sure you get those orders in so that you get all the free items you were hoping for. Here’s my card for today.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Sale-a-bration Island Vibes Cling Stamp Set along with the Stampin’ Up! Sale-a-bration Special Moments Photopolymer Stamp Set for my card today.

I started by stamping the leaf image from the Island Vibes stamp set in Just Jade Ink on a panel of Basic White cardstock. I stamped the sentiment from the Special Moments stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on the top of the panel. I embossed the panel using the Tasteful Textile 3D Embossing Folder.

I adhered the Basic White panel to a Cinnamon Cider mat and then to a Just Jade mat using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the layered panel to a Basic White Thick card base using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

On a small panel of Basic White cardstock I stamped the potted plant image from the Island Vibes stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink. I colored the image using my Cinnamon Cider, Crumb Cake and Just Jade Stampin’ Blends Markers. I fussy cut the image using my Paper Snips and adhered it to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Eden’s Garden Cling Stamp Set in Tuxedo Black Ink on a panel of Basic White cardstock. I stamped the leaf image from the Island Vibes stamp set in Just Jade Ink on the bottom of the panel. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Just Jade mat and then to the inside of the Basic White Thick card base.

To finish my card, I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the leaf image from the Island Vibes stamp set in Just Jade Ink on the envelope front and flap. I stamped the potted plant image from the Island Vibes stamp set in Tuxedo Black and colored it the same as for the card.

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

Stampin’ Up! Hello Ladybug

Posted on by
6

Good Saturday morning my stamping friends and welcome to the weekend. What is everyone doing this weekend? Other than working I don’t do much this time of year on the weekends. I like to hibernate because it’s so cold.

I played with a new bundle today, but this time with a punch not dies. This was one of the 1st sets that caught my eye and I just had to have it. Here’s my card for today.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Hello Ladybug Bundle along with the Pattern Party Host Designer Series Paper for my card today.

I started by adhering a panel of the Pattern Party DSP to a Basic White Thick card base.

On a panel of Basic White cardstock, I stamped the leaf image from the Stampin’ Up! Hello Ladybug Stamp Set in Granny Apple Green Ink. I stamped the trio of flowers image from the Hello Ladybug stamp set in Gorgeous Grape Ink by the leaf and the little dot image in Daffodil Delight Ink by the flowers. Using my 2nd largest Stitched With Whimsy Dies, I added the stitching around the panel. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Poppy Parade mat and then to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. On a panel of Basic White cardstock, I stamped the ladybug body from the Hello Ladybug stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink. I stamped the wings image from the Hello Ladybug stamp set in Poppy Parade Ink on the Basic Whtie panel then stamped the spots on the wings in Tuxedo Black Ink. I punched the images out using my Ladybug Builder Punch. I adhered the wings to the body using Stampin’ Dimensionals and then to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

On a strip of Basic White cardstock I stamped the sentiment from the Hello Ladybug stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink. I adhered the sentiment to a Poppy Parade mat and then to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I tied a small bow using the 1/4″ Black & White Gingham Ribbon and adhered it to the sentiment using a Glue Dot.

On the inside I stamped the sentiments from the Hello Ladybug stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on a Basic White panel. I stamped the flower trio image from the Hello Ladybug stamp set in Gorgeous Grape Ink above the sentiment and the dots in Daffodil Delight Ink. I stamped the ladybug image from the Hello Ladybug stamp set on the bottom of the panel stamping the Tuxedo Black part first and the Poppy Parade over the top. I adhered the Basic Whtie panel to a Poppy Parade mat and then to the inside of the Basic Whtie Thick card base.

To finish my card, I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the ladybug image from the Hello Ladybug stamp set on the envelope front. First, I stamped the Tuxedo Black part of the stamp then the Poppy Parade over the top. I stamped the sentiment from the Hello Ladybug stamp set by the ladybug. I adhered a panel of the Pattern Party DSP to the envelope flap.

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

Stampin’ Up On The Horizon Fun Fold

Posted on by
16

Good Friday morning my stamping friends. Welcome to my Fun Fold Friday. How was everyone’s week? Does anyone have plans for the weekend? I have off tomorrow but have to work on Sunday.

Today’s card I was going to make on my Facebook Live Wednesday, but I wasn’t feeling well so I never went live. I’m hoping all is better next week. Here’s my card for today.

I used the Stampin’ Up! On The Horizon Bundle along with the New Horizon 6 X 6 Designer Series Paper for my card today.

I started by scoring and folding my Misty Moonlight card base as listed below. I took a panel of the New Horizons DSP and cut it down to 5 3/8″. I cut 15/16″ off the right and left side of the DSP. I stamped the grass image from the Stampin’ Up! On The Horizon Cling Stamp Set in Garden Green Ink on the 2 small panels. I adhered the 2 panels on the 2 side folds of the card base. I stamped the bird image from the On The Horizon stamp set on the larger piece of DSP in Tuxedo Black Ink then adhered it in the center of the card base.

Using my Horizon Dies, I cut the 2 fence pieces out of a panel of In Good Taste Designer Series Paper. I adhered the 2 fences on each of the side panels using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I cut 2 of the grass dies from a panel of Soft Succulent cardstock and adhered them in front of the fence pieces.

On a panel of In Good Taste DSP I stamped the sentiment from the On The Horizon stamp set in Misty Moonlight Ink and fussy cut it using my Paper Snips. I adhered the sentiment to the side panel using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. On the panel I cut off the top of the DSP I stamped the bird image from the On The Horizon stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink. My husband wanted to do some extreme fussy cutting (as he called it) of the birds, so I cut a couple and so did he. I adhered the cut birds to the side panels with a tiny amount of Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I added a few Pebbles Enamel Shapes to the card front.

On a panel of Basic White cardstock, I stamped the sentiment from the On The Horizon stamp set in Misty Moonlight Ink. I stamped the grass image on the bottom of the panel in Garden Green Ink and the birds on the top of the panel in Tuxedo Black Ink. I adhered the Basic White panel to the back of the Misty Moonlight card base.

To finish my card, I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the envelope front with the grass image from the On The Horizon stamp set in Garden Green Ink and the birds in Tuxedo Black Ink. I adhered a panel of New Horizon DSP to the envelope flap.

Thank you for stopping by my blog today. I hope you liked my card and will give it a try. I hope you will CASE this card and please feel free to post it in the comments of my Facebook page under the post. I’d love to see your take on the card. Happy Stamping!!

Stampin’ Up! Ranunculus Romance Hello for The Card Concepts

Posted on by
2

Good Wednesday morning my stamping friends. We’re halfway through the week already and on our way to the weekend. I hope you are starting to make some plans.

It’s time for another inspiration challenge for The Card Concepts. The inspiration photo is Fresh New Year.  Here is my card that was inspired from the challenge photo.

I used the new Stampin’ Up! Ranunculus Romance Bundle along with the Pattern Party Host Designer Series Paper for my Clean & Layered card today. I was inspired by the beautiful roses in the photo along with the colors.

I hope you will take a moment to visit The Card Concepts and join us for our challenge #166.  How are you inspired by this photo?

I started by adhering a panel of the Pattern Party DSP to a Basic White Thick card base.

From a panel of Flirty Flamingo and Petal Pink cardstock, I cut a detailed and solid flower using my Ranunculus Dies. I adhered them together using a tiny amount of Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I adhered the flower to the card front.

From a panel of Basic White cardstock I cut the largest circle from my Layering Circles Dies. I stamped the rose image and sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Ranunculus Romance Cling Stamp Set in Tuxedo Black Ink. I cut the images using my Ranunculus Dies. I colored the rose image in using my Flirty Flamingo and Granny Apple Green Stampin’ Blends Markers. I embossed the large circle using my Timeworn Type 3D Embossing Folder. I cut the largest scalloped circle using my Layering Circles Dies from a panel of the Brushed Metallic cardstock. I adhered the embossed circle to the gold circle using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I adhered a piece of the Petal Pink 5/8″ Organdy Striped Ribbon to the circle then the flower over it using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I adhered the layered circle to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I adhered the sentiment to the bottom of the circle using a Glue Dot and Stampin’ Dimensional. I added a few Iridescent Rhinestones Basic Jewels to the card front.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Special Moments Cling Stamp Set in Tuxedo Black Ink. This set is a Sale-a-bration item and can be earned FREE with a qualifying order. I stamped the rose image from the Ranunculus Romance stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on the side of the panel and colored it in using my Flirty Flamingo, Granny Apple Green and Petal Pink Stampin’ Blends Markers. I adhered the Basic Whtie panel to a Petal Pink mat and then to the inside of the Basic White Thick card base.

To complete my card I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the rose image from the Ranunculus Romance stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on the envelope front. I colored the image in using my Flirty Flamingo, Granny Apple Green and Petal Pink Stampin’ Blends Markers. I adhered a panel of the Pattern Party DSP to the envelope flap.

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

Stampin’ Up! Ranunculus Romance for the January-June 2022 Mini Catalog Blog Hop

Posted on by
8

Good Tuesday morning my stamping friends. Welcome to our January-June 2022 Mini Catalog Blog Hop. If you’ve hopped over from Akiko Sudano’s blog, thank you for stopping by. We thought this would be a great way for you to see some of the beautiful products that will be available coming up Mini Catalog starting on January 4, 2022. We each got to pick a stamp set, bundle or suite that we wanted to feature. I hope you enjoy seeing everyone’s beautiful projects. Here’s mine using a new bundle from the Mini Catalog along with some of the gorgeous new Designer Series Paper.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Ranunculus Romance Bundle along with the Heart and Home Designer Series Paper for my card today.

I started by stamping the rose image and the small floral image from the Ranunculus Romance stamp set. I colored the stamps using my Fresh Freesia, Just Jade and Misty Moonlight Stampin’ Write Markers. I cut the images out using my Ranunculus Dies. I also cut a flower using one of the Ranunculus Dies from a panel of Pale Papaya cardstock. I adhered the die cut images on a Heart & Home Doilie using Glue Dots and Stampin’ Dimensionals

I adhered a panel of the Heart & Home DSP to a Basic Gray card base. On a strip of Fresh Freesia 2021-2023 In-Color Shimmer Vellum I stamped the postage image in Basic Gray Ink, stamping off once. I stamped the sentiment from the Ranunculus Romance stamp set in Basic Gray Ink on the bottom of the panel. I adhered the shimmer vellum using Stampin’ Seal just where the doily was going to be adhered.

I adhered the artwork to the shimmer vellum using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I tied a small bow using the Pale Papaya 3/8″ Open Weave Ribbon and adhered it with a Glue Dot to the bottom of the flowers. I added a few Iridescent Rhinestones Basic Jewels to the card front.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Ranunculus Romance stamp set in Basic Gray Ink on a Basic White panel. I stamped the rose image from the Ranunculus Romance stamp set on the bottom of the panel coloring it in the same with my Stampin’ Write Markers, as I did for the card front. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Basic Gray mat and then to the inside of the Basic Gray card base.

To complete my card, I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the rose image from the Ranunculus Romance stamp set on the envelope front coloring it the same as I did for the card front. I adhered a panel of the Heart & Home DSP to the envelope flap.

Thank you for visiting my blog today. I hope you liked my card and will give it a try. Now that you’ve seen my card, take a minute to hop through all our projects today.
