Stampin’ Up! Country Bouquet All Occasion Card for the Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop

It’s time for another Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop and I’m excited to see what my team members have created for the Hop today!

I used the pretty Country Bouquet Stamp Set, Country Floral Lane 12″ x 12″ Designer Series Paper and the Around the Bend Bundle to create my card for the Hop. 

We have a sketch challenge for today and this is my interpretation of the sketch.

I started off by adhering a piece of the Country Floral Lane Designer Series Paper to a mat in Sweet Sorbet, then adhered this to a Mossy Meadow card base. The two-step heart from the Country Bouquet Stamp Set was stamped onto a piece of white cardstock in Mossy Meadow and Sweet Sorbet. I then used the largest die from the Stylish Shapes Dies set to cut out the stamped image.

Onto a white sentiment label measuring 3″ x 1-1/4″ I stamped a sentiment from the Around the Bend Stamp Set using Mossy Meadow ink. The sentiment label was adhered to the right side of the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals and was centered from top to bottom. The stamped heart circle was adhered to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals and was placed on the left side of the card front and partially overlapping the sentiment label.

Using dies from the Around the Bend Dies set, I cut out leaves in Mossy Meadow and Pear Pizzazz and hearts from Sweet Sorbet. The leaves were tucked under the circle die cut and above and below the sentiment label and were adhered with glue. I scattered the die cut hearts around the card front.

The inside panel of the card was simply stamped with a leaf sprig and hearts from the Country Bouquet Stamp Set and was then adhered to a mat in Sweet Sorbet.

The envelope front was also decorated with the same leaf sprig and hearts, and I adhered a piece of coordinating designer series paper to the envelope flap and fussy cut around the flap to finish off the envelope.

A small bow from Real Red ribbon was adhered to the card front below the circle and I adhered several white Enamel Dots to the card front as well.

I hope you enjoyed my card today and I want to thank you for stopping by! If you’re joining the hop from my blog, be sure to use the navigation links below to see more creativity and inspiration!

Stampin’ Up! Country Bouquet Double Z Fold Valentine’s Day Card for Amy’s Inkin’ Krew Blog Hop

It’s time for Amy’s Inkin’ Krew Blog Hop! The theme this month is “Love” and we can interpret this any way that we’d like. I know you will see a lot of gorgeous creations from my team members in the Hop today! Let’s go!

What says LOVE more than a Valentine’s Day card? I used the Country Bouquet Bundle (stamps and punch) and Country Floral Lane 12″ x 12″ Designer Series Paper to create this fun Double Z Fold card for today.

The Double Z Fold consists of two card bases – I’ll call these the rear card base and the front card base. The rear card base was cut from Mossy Meadow cardstock to 11″ x 4-1/4″ and scored at 8-1/4″ and 5-1/2″. Using a floral heart patterned paper from the Country Floral Lane Designer Series Paper pack, I cut three panels and adhered these to the rear card base.

The front card base was cut from Petal Pink cardstock to 10-1/2″ x 3-1/4″ and scored at 7-1/2″ and 4-1/2″. Panels were cut from a small heart pattern from the Country Floral Lane paper and matted to white cardstock and adhered to the left and center panels of the front card base.

The left panel of the front card base was decorated with a die cut square stamped with the floral heart from the Country Bouquet Stamp Set in Sweet Sorbet and Mossy Meadow inks. A sentiment label was created using the small and large banner dies from the Stylish Shapes Dies set and this sentiment label was adhered over the stamped heart.

The center panel of the front card base was decorated with two punched hearts in Petal Pink and two punched leaves in Mossy Meadow. A third panel was used to stamp an inside sentiment and this panel was matted to a piece of Sweet Sorbet cardstock and adhered to the right panel of the front card base.

Once each of the card bases were decorated, the two card bases were adhered to each other using liquid glue.

A single heart pearl was adhered to the card front. A piece of coordinating designer series paper was adhered to the envelope flap and I trimmed the excess paper away from the flap. Several solid, small hearts were stamped onto the envelope front using Sweet Sorbet ink.

I hope you enjoyed my card for today as much as I enjoyed creating it! Thank you so much for visiting my blog! You can find complete instructions for this card on the linked pdf tutorial, including all cutting measurements, by clicking on the image below.
