Artisan Flowers Card

Posted on June 23, 2026June 15, 2026 by Mo Rootes

I have kept this card really simple and used the gorgeous Artisan Sketched Garden designer series paper (dsp) to make a pretty, floral congratulations card.

Colours used in this card are:

I created the artisan flowers card using the following supplies:

Barely Blush card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored at 4⅛” on the long side
Basic White – 5⅜” by 3⅝”
Artisan Sketched Garden dsp – 5¼” by 3½”
Basic White – 4⅛” by 2¼”
Basic White – 5½” by 3¾” for the inside

From the 4⅛” by 2¼” panel of Basic White I die cut a label using the Nested Essentials dies.

I mounted the sentiment, from the Reason to Celebrate stamp set onto my Stamp Positioner plate, inked it up with the Black Hybrid ink and stamped it onto the die cut label. I used the positioner in case I needed to stamp it multiple times. I then set it aside to dry which took quite a while.

Using the Barely Blush Blends Pens, I coloured in the larger flowers on my chosen piece of Artisan Sketched Garden dsp. The soft pastel colour looks dramatic against the black background.

The leaves were then coloured with the Soft Sea Foam Blends Pens. I left the tiny flowers white.

Hello and welcome to the Stamping With Friends Blog Hop where we are sharing projects made using the Here & Now Mixed Ephemera Pack. This pack is, in my opinion, designed for scrapbooking which is something I haven’t got to grips with yet. I have therefore used it to make a card.

I used 3^rd generation Strawberry Slush ink to stamp over the sentiment, adding texture. The same image was stamped in 3^rd generation Strawberry Slush ink onto one of the panels of Basic White card in the upper right and lower left corners.

www.crafty-rootes.co.uk – The All Aflutter stamp set used with the Here & Now Mix & Match Ephemera pack to make a pretty butterfly themed sending love card
