Hello and welcome to the Ink & Inspirations Blog Hop where we are sharing projects inspired by a picture/colour challenge. I used the Sending Smiles stamp set to make a pretty floral card using the colours we were given.
Colours used in this project are:
To recreate the sending smiles card, you will need:
Crumb Cake card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored and folded at 4⅛” – rounded upper left corner
Merry Merlot card – 5⅜” by 3⅝” – rounded upper left corner
Basic White card – 5¼” by 3½” – rounded upper left corner
2022 – 2024 In Color dsp – 3¾” by 1”
Basic White card – 5½” by 3¾”– rounded upper left corner
Merry Merlot card – ¼” strip
Using Mossy Meadow ink, I stamped the stems and leaves onto the 5¼” by 3½” panel of Basic White card.

The flowers were added in Crushed Curry, Pumpkin Pie, Merry Merlot and Tahitian Tide. The flower centres were stamped in either Crumb Cake or Merry Merlot ink.

I added the strip of Tahitian Tide dsp at the bottom of the panel and wrapped a length of Crumb Cake Baker’s Twine around the panel securing it on the back with Sellotape. The decorated piece was the adhered to the Merry Merlot panel using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

I stamped the sentiment in Versamark ink onto the strip of Merry Merlot card, covered it with White Embossing Powder and heat set it using a Heat Tool. I trimmed the cardstock down and added it to the panel with liquid glue.

The whole panel was mounted on the Crumb Cake card base on Dimensionals.

A Baker’s Twine bow and a trio of Iridescent Rhinestones completed the card.
