I needed to make a card for a friend who has been feeling unwell and used the now closed Hand Stamped Sentiments sketch challenge to create this card.  I stamped the greeting from the Timeless Tulips stamp set onto the lower right hand corner of Very Vanilla card using Early Espresso ink before I embossed the panel using the Timeless Texture Embossing Folder.  The embossed panel is attached to scored and folded Flirty Flamingo card.   I attached one strip of In Good Taste Designer Series Paper to the left hand side of the embossed panel.  I punched a “v” in one end of another strip of In Good Taste Designer Series Paper using the Triple Banner Punch and attached it over the first piece of Designer Series Paper.   I removed two of the die cut leaves from the Forever Gold Specialty Designer Series Paper and attached them to the card front.  I stamped the leaf image from the Floral Essence stamp set onto Very Vanilla card three times using Granny Apple Green ink.   I used the retired Leaf Punch to punch them out.  I attached the stamped leaves to the card front partially covering the die cut leaves.  I stamped the large and small solid flowers from the Floral Essence stamp set onto Very Vanilla card using Flirty Flamingo ink and cut them out.  I coloured the centre of the small flower using the Dark Daffodil Delight Stampin’ Blend. I attached the small flower to the centre of the large flower using dimensionals before attaching the flower to the card front so that it covered the ends of the leaf stems.

To decorate the inside of the card, I stamped the leaf image from the Floral Essence stamp set onto the lower left hand corner of Very Vanilla card.  I stamped the large and the small solid flowers onto Very Vanilla card using Flirty Flamingo ink and cut them out.  I coloured the centre of the small flower using the Dark Daffodil Delight Stampin’ Blend.  I attached the small flower to the centre of the large flower and attached them to the Very Vanilla card so that covered the end of the stamped leaf.

I really love the end result – thank you Hand Stamped Sentiments for the inspiration.  I hope my friend likes it as much as I do.

Bye for now,

Kris
