Happy Thursday! It looks like another rainy day in Georgia, but what does that matter to me it took me 3 days to get this card made.

The card today features the Stampin’ Up! Special Someone Stamp Set.  The greeting is from Stampin’ Up! Itty Bitty Greetings Stamp Set.

The design inspiration comes from the Atlantic Hearts Sketch Challenge #358.  

And…

The Always Fun Challenge — Shades of Green.

And…

The Double “D” Challenges — It’s All About Green.

This is true shades of green — Garden Green card base,  Mint Macaron, Mossy Meadow, Soft Seafoam are all the greens.  You can see all these greens in the layers.  Makes for a cute in-depth card.  All the layers are cropped using dies from the Stampin’ Up! Stitched Rectangle Dies.

The art image is from the Stampin’ Up! Special Someone and is stamped on a Stampin’ Up! Whisper White base using Tuxedo Memento Black Ink.  The image is then colored using Stampin’ Up! Light & Dark Crumb Cake Stampin’ Blends Markers.  The Stampin’ Up! Linen Thread has been colored using a Stampin’ Up! Dark Old Olive Stampin’ Blends Marker and attached to the two Shamrock balloons.  Three Basic Rhinestone jewels colored using a Stampin’ Up! Dark Shaded Spruce (another green) Stampin’ Blends Marker is added to the greeting and each Shamrock center.

The Whisper White sentiment panel is framed with a frame that was the negative piece left when a panel of the Stampin’ Up! Garden Lane Designer Series Paper is cropped.  It is adhered to the inside of the card using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.  The Stampin’ Up! Stitched So Sweetly Dies was used for the sentiment panel with sentiments from Stampin’ Up! Sending You Thoughts and Here’s A Card Stamp Sets stamped in Stampin’ Up! Garden Green Classic Ink.

A Whisper White envelope receives a panel of the Garden Lane DSP to the envelope flap and your project is finished.

Thank you for stopping by today.  I hope you will join me on my stamping journey as I share my cards with you each day.  My hope and wish are that you will be inspired to create amazing creations yourself.  Any questions you may have, you know you can always contact me.  Have a blessed day!
