Good Tuesday morning my stamping friends welcome to Amy’s Inkin’ Krew Team Blog Hop. It’s the 2nd Tuesday of the month so that means Blog Hop Day!! If you are starting with me, be sure to hop around to see everyone’s beautiful projects. If you’ve hopped over from Karen’s blog, welcome to my blog and thank you for stopping by. The theme this month is “Birthday”. 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 new Stampin’ Up! Make A Wish Stamp Set (available March 3) along with the Perennial Postage Dies for my card today.

On a panel of Basic White, stamp the cobble stone walk, duck, dragonflies and flower images from the Make A Wish stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink. Stamp the grass image from the Make A Wish stamp set in Garden Green Ink and the bushes in Shaded Spruce Ink. Color the cobble stones with Cloud Cover and Crumb Cake Stampin’ Blends Markers. Color the bushes with Shaded Spruce Stampin’ Blends Markers and the flowers with Pretty in Pink, Strawberry Slush and Shy Shamrock Stampin’ Blends Markers.

Using the Small Blending Brushes add Balmy Blue Ink to the top of the panel and Garden Green Ink to the bottom of the panel. Cut the artwork panel using the largest Perennial Postage Dies. Adhere the die cut panel to a Strawberry Slush mat. Adhere the layered panel to a Pretty in Pink card base.

On a panel of Basic White, stamp the sentiment from the Make A Wish stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink. Cut the sentiment out using the Perennial Postage Dies. Since the die is smaller than the sentiment, cut 1/2 way through, move the die and lock it into the already cut area and cut from the opposite side. Adhere the sentiment to a Strawberry Slush mat. Adhere the layered sentiment to the card front with Stampin’ Dimensionals. Add a few Strawberries & Dots embellishments (avail Mar 3) to the card front.

On a panel of Basic White, stamp the sentiment from the Make A Wish stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink. Stamp the duck image form the Make A Wish stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on the bottom of the panel. Stamp the grass image in Garden Green Ink. Adhere the Basic White panel to a Strawberry Slush mat then to the inside of the Pretty in Pink card base.

Decorate a Basic White Medium Envelope to complete the card. Stamp the flower and duck images from the Make A Wish stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on the bottom of the envelope front. Stamp the grass image in Garden Green Ink. Color the images using the Pretty in Pink, Strawberry Slush, Shy Shamrock and Timid Tiger Stampin’ Blends Markers. Adhere a panel of 2024-2026 In-Color 6 x 6 Designer Series Paper to the envelope flap.
