Stampin with Shirley G

My card today that I am sharing is created using one of the new Online Exclusives available in March for customers.  I also, use Stampin’ Up! Thoughtful Expressions stamp set and Stampin’ Up! Softly Sophisticated stamp set and Embossing Folder, a free Sale-a-Bration item.

1. Start with a Basic White cardstock card base.
2. Add a panel of Poppy Parade cardstock using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.
3. Next, add a Basic White cardstock panel that has been embossed using the Softly Sophisticated Embossing Folder, adhere using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.  It shows up as a half  panel.
4. Cut a panel of Sunny Day Designer Series Paper and cut it at an angle. See photo about for how it was cut.
5. Stamp a flower image from Stampin’ Up! Simply Zinnia stamp set in Memento Black in on a Basic White panel.
6. Color the flowers and leaves using Poppy Parade, Daffodil Delight, Granny Apple Green, Mango Melody, and Crumb Cake Stampin’ Blends.
7. Color the white area around the zinnias in the area where it is placed over the Softly Sophisticated Designer Series Paper so there is not blaring white when you look at the card.
8. There is a die for the flowers but I fussy cut as I wanted it cut closer.
9. Cut a thin strip of Basic Black cardstock and a thin strip from a panel of Sunny Days Designer Series Paper.  
10. Add the strips across the card from covering the area there the Sunny Days Designer Series Paper and the Basic White cardstock panel meet. Use Multipurpose Liquid Glue as the adhesive.
11. Pop the zinnias over the two thin strips using Stampin’ Dimensionals.
12. Stamp a greeting from Stampin’ Up! Softly Sophisticated stamp set in Memento Black ink on a piece of Basic White cardstock.
13. Flag one end of the greeting.
14. Pop the greeting over the stem of the zinnias using Stampin’ Dimensionals
15. Pop three Rhinestone Basic Jewels that have been colored using a Poppy Parade Stampin’ Blends.
16.  On a Basic White cardstock panel stamp a sentiment from Stampin’ Up! Thoughtful Expressions stamp set in Memento Black ink.
17. Stamp a portion of the same stamp used for the card front in the lower right corner of the panel using Memento Black ink.
18. Color the zinnias using the same colors as the ones on the card front.
19. Using Memento Black ink stamped off twice stamp dots using a dot stamp from Stampin’ Up! Notes of Nature stamp set.
20. Stamp in Memento Black ink a sentiment from Stampin’ Up! Thoughtful Expressions stamp set.  Stamp the sentiment by the zinnias.
21. Adhere the Basic White panel to a Poppy Parade cardstock mat, then adhered to the card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.
22. Adhere two Rhinestone Basic Jewels that have been colored using a Poppy Parade Stampin’ Blends
23. Adhere a panel of Sunny Days Designer Series Paper the flap of a Basic White envelope flap.
