Welcome! It that time, the 2nd Tuesday of the month  you have been waiting for with excitement, a fun team blog hop from Amy’s Inkin’ Krew.   The theme for this month is “Celebrate Spring”. You are in for a treat seeing all the talent these ladies present to you. Sit back with your favorite beverage and enjoy.  You will see cards that will  inspire you to get creative as you jump from blog to blog.

 

This card lets the Designer Series Paper do all this work.  The beautiful Zinnias do make for a great picture.  Would love having then grow in my flower garden if I had one.  In creating this card today I used Flowering Zinnias Designer Series Paper, Zinnia 3 D Embossing Folder, Stampin’ Up! By My Side stamp set for the greeting, Stampin’ Up! Lazy Days stamp set for the inside sentiment and Stampin’ Up! Beach Day stamp set for the other part of the sentiment.

The card base is Melon Mambo cardstock with a layer of Granny Apple Green embossed with Zinnia Embossing Folder.  The panel of Zinnias are also embossed using the same embossing folder.  A strip of Gorgeous Grape cardstock is embossed using the Timbers 3 D Embossing Folder.  This strip is placed across the card front as a division between the Zinnia panel and the Granny Apple Green embossed panel.

Adhesive Backed Shiny Sequins are popped around the card front.  A greeting is stamped on a scrap of Basic White cardstock in Memento Black ink, then matted on a scrap of Melon Mambo cardstock and popped over the Linen Thread bow using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

Sentiments from Stampin’ Up! Lazy Days stamp set and Stampin’ Up! Beach Day stamp set are stamped in Memento Black ink on a Basic White panel.  A zinnia is fussy cut from a piece of the Flowering Zinnias Designer Series Paper and adhered in the corner using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

A piece of Basic White cardstock get embossed using the Zinnia 3 D Embossing Folder. This pieces is adhered to a Basic White envelope flap using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.
