Tea Together
I love the looks of this card. It is created using the Tea Together stamp set and the greeting is from the Rooted In Nature stamp set. An easy card, I think, for a beginner, but advanced enough that the most seasoned card maker will like.
My sketch design and inspiration comes from the Stamp, Ink, Paper Challenge 189 for the week.
Cut your Basic Black card base, along with the Whisper White mat for the front and for the inside sentiment. Then cut the black/white panel that is from the Botanical Butterfly DSP. This DSP is free with a $50 purchase during Sale-A-Bration, which ends on March 31. I find it easier if you do all your cutting at once instead of just cutting a piece as you need it.
Adhere the Whisper White panel which has been embossed using the Subtle Textured Impression Embossing Folder (TIEF) to the card base after you have popped the black/white panel from the Botanical Butterfly on it.
Stamp 4 roses from the Tea Together stamp set on thick Whisper White card stock using Versa Mark Ink. One of the roses is for the inside sentiment panel. Sprinkle White Embossing Powder over the Versa Mark Ink and using your heat tool, heat emboss. I like heat embossing when coloring because it prevents the colors from running. Cut the roses out using the Tea Time Framelits Dies (the easy way), I fussy cut because I picked up the wrong stamp set with roses and dies and thought oh, there is not a die for this rose, after fussy cutting, I realized my mistake.
Color the roses using Garden Green and Real Red Stampin’ Write Markers. The roses are popped across the bottom of the black/white checked panel using Stampin’ Dimensionals. Stamp the greeting in Real Red ink on a scrap of paper. I traced the shape of the stamp for the greeting and fussy cut it also. The greeting was popped in the center of the black/white checked panel using Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals. 
Using Tuxedo Memento Black Ink stamp the sentiment from the stamp set Strong and Beautiful on a panel of Whisper White card stock. Pop the rose in the lower right corner using a Mini Stampin Dimensional. Adhere the sentiment panel to the card base using Liquid Glue. The card is finished.
That is it for today! Hope you like the card!! Have a blessed day.

Card Cuts:
Basic Black Card Stock – 4-1/4″ x 11″ scored at 5-1/2″ and folded on the scoreline — Card Base
Whisper White Card Stock – 4-1/8″ x 5-3/8″ mat for card front and inside sentiment panel
Botanical Butterfly DSP – 3-1/4″ x 3-1/4″ focal panel on card front
The base is Basic Black card stock. The focal panel is stamped on Whisper White thick card stock so the coloring will be absorbed better and not make the paper rough up. It is stamped in Tuxedo Memento Black ink on the full panel. The Stamparatus is great for being able to stamp this. After you have stamped the full panel, place the 1-1/2″ x 4-3/4″ panel in the center of the full panel and stamp again. This will be the panel you will color and mat with a Basic Black mat.
The sky is Calypso Coral and Highland Heather sponged onto the card stock. Amazing how different the color can be using different techniques to apply. The birds are stamped in Tuxedo Memento Black ink using the stamp from High Tide stamp set. The bushes are colored using Garden Green ink that is mixed with water using an Aqua Painter. The walkway and a bit of the wall is colored using Crumb Cake in with an Aqua Painter. The two side panels are left uncolored with the exception of the roofs of the two small buildings. 
The greeting is stamped in Tuxedo Memento Black Ink at the bottom of the center panel. After the coloring is finished, the panel is matted using a panel of Basic Black card stock. It is then adhered over the full focal panel using Liquid Glue. T
he inside sentiment is stamped in Tuxedo Memento Black Ink on a panel of Whisper White. The sentiment is from the Well Said stamp set. The birds are stamped in Crumb Cake ink.
A jar was cut from Vellum card stock using the Everyday Jar Framelits. A length of Linen Thread was wrapped three times around the neck of the jar and tied in a bow. 
A doily from the Doily Builder Thinlits Dies was cut from a panel of Whisper White card stock. It was adhered to the Pool Party card base using Liquid Glue.
I stamped the stems twice for each stem to make sure they were long enough for the jar and still be able to adhere the flower heads to them using Stampin’ Dimensionals cut in two pieces. The stems were adhered using Glue Dots and the flower heads were adhered using Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals. 
Three pears from the Share What You Love Artisan Pearls package are scattered to various spots on the card front.
