Hello and welcome to the Hopping Around the World Blog Hop where our theme is ‘favourite product’ and oh my goodness we are spoilt for choice with the new catalogue. I have chosen to use the Blossoms in Bloom stamp set to make my card. If you have joined me from Jennifer Downey’s blog, welcome and I am sure you loved her project.
To recreate the Blossoms card you will need:
Pool Party card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored at 4⅛” – rounded lower right corner
Gorgeous Grape – 5” by 3¼” – rounded lower right corner
Whisper White – 4⅞” by 3⅛” – rounded lower right corner
Whisper White – 5⅜” by 3⅝” – rounded lower right corner
Gorgeous Grape – ½” wide strip
Using one of the small flowers and Pool Party ink I stamped in the upper left and lower right corners of the Pool Party card to add some subtle texture.

I inked up the large floral image in Pool Party ink and added some Gorgeous Grape ink to the edges of the flowers using a Sponge Dauber. I love the two-tone effect this gives. I stamped it on the smaller panel of Whisper White.

The small flowers were randomly added using Gorgeous Grape ink. The flower centres were stamped in Gray Granite ink and the leaves in Granny Apple Green ink.

The stamped layer was added to the Gorgeous Grape layer with Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive and mounted on the card front with Dimensionals.

I wiped my embossing buddy over the strip of Gorgeous Grape and stamped the sentiment in Versamark ink, covered it with White Embossing Powder and heat set it with my heat tool.

I stamped the small flower on the remaining Whisper White panel and onto the envelope to complete the card.
I hope you like it.

Thank you Susan, glad you liked it x
The colour combo is great and the pop of gorgeous grape and granny apple green finish it off. I like how you rounded one corner and matted it a bit differently. Really made it attractive!
