Welcome back!!! I am still in Florida on vacation and today it’s Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop time and today we have a fun color combo as our challenge! Check it out!
Isn’t this a bright color combo???? Today is my birthday and well, I decided, I wanted to make a birthday card using a brand new stamp set to me called Life is Grand and the Bloom by Bloom bundle just screamed to go with these colors, so that’s what I used to create this card. And I have a special for you from today till Sunday in celebration of my birthday, so don’t miss out on that. Make sure you scroll all the way down to the end of the post! 🙂
Last time I created with the Bloom by Bloom bundle, I didn’t have the punches, but they finally arrived and look at that cute little punched flower! Isn’t that so cute???
INSTRUCTIONS TO CREATE THE LIFE IS GRAND BIRTHDAY CARD:
- I started out with the card base, which is Whisper White card stock 4-1/4 x 8-1/2 score and fold at 5-1/2.
- Next, I cut a 3-3/4 x 5 Whisper White card stock and stamped the flower stems using Call Me Clover Ink and the large flower using Pineapple Punch. I also stamped a small flower with the Pineapple Punch ink and another one using Calypso Coral ink, fussy cut them out and adhered the Calypso Coral flower on using Stampin Dimensional.
- Next, I cut a 3-1/2 x 1-1/2 Calypso Coral card stock panel and white embossed the Make a Wish sentiment on it and adhere it on top of the flower stems and adhere the small Pineapple Punch flower on top of it as shown on picture. I added a small metallic pearl in the middle of it.
- Next I punched out a small Pineapple Punch flower and a leaf using Call Me Clover card stock and using liquid glue, I adhered them on the sentiment label.
- Next I cut a 3-7/8 x 5-1/8 Pineapple Punch card stock and adhered it below my art panel and adhered both using Snail adhesive on the card base.
Here is another shot of my card created with Life is Grand and the Bloom by Bloom bundle.
