Good Monday morning my fellow stampers. How was everyone’s weekend? I did enjoy my weekend off. It was nice not to have to get up and have to leave for work for a few days.
I have a Clean and Simple spring card for you today. I’m not sure if I want to use this for a Birthday or Mother’s Day, so I left the sentiment pretty open. Here’s today’s card.
My colors were inspired by CAS Colours & Sketch Challenge #365. These colors just said springtime to me as soon as I saw them. Here are their colors.
I joined in with Always Fun Challenges #158. Their theme is “CAS (clean and simple)”.
I started by stamping the stem image from the Stampin’ Up! Timeless Tulips Photopolymer Stamp Set 5 times on a panel of Whisper White cardstock in Mint Macaron Ink. I stamped the leaf image from the Timeless Tulips stamp set in Mint Macaron Ink on the stems and a couple on a scrap piece of Whisper White cardstock. The leave on the scrap cardstock I cut out using the Tulip Builder Punch.
I stamped the medium tulip image and the small tulip image from the Timeless Tulips stamp set on the stems in Highland Heather and Petal Pink Inks. I cut the image out using the 2nd largest die from the Stitched Rectangle Dies. I adhered the punched out leaves to the stems using Glue Dots.
I stamped the sentiment from the Timeless Tulips stamp set in Highland Heather Ink on the left side of the panel. I adhered the artwork to a Thick Whisper White card base using Snail.
On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Timeless Tulips stamp set in Highland Heather Ink in the center of a Whisper White panel. I stamped the stem image from the Timeless Tulips stamp set in Mint Macaron Ink on the bottom of the panel 4 times. I stamped the leaf image from the Timeless Tulips stamp set in Mint Macaron Ink on either side of the stems. I stamped the medium and small tulip images from the Timeless Tulips stamp set in Highland Heather and Petal Pink Inks on the stems. I adhered the Whisper White panel to the inside of the Whisper White card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.
To finish my card I decorated a Medium Whisper White Envelope. I stamped the stem image from the Timeless Tulips stamp set 3 times on the envelope front in Mint Macaron Ink. I stamped the leaf image from the Timeless Tulips stamp set on the stems in Mint Macaron Ink. I stamped the medium tulip image from the Timeless Tulips stamp set in Highland Heather and Petal Pink Inks on the stems. I adhered a panel of Perennial Essence 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. Happy Stamping!!
