Hello and welcome to the Stampers Showcase Blog Hop where we are sharing Thinking of You projects. As a proud Scot, I have chosen the Beautiful Thistle stamp set to make my card.
The colours used to make this card are:
To recreate the thistle thinking of you card, you will need:
Pool Party card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” – scored at 4⅛” – rounded upper right corner
Fresh Freesia card – 5⅛” by 3⅜” – rounded upper right corner
Basic White card – 5” by 3¼” – rounded upper right corner
Basic White card – 5½” by 3¾” – rounded upper right corner
The large thistle image was stamped In Memento Tuxedo Black ink onto the smaller panel of Basic White card.

I used the Fresh Freesia and Soft Sea Foam Blends Pens to colour in the image. To ground the image, I outlined it using the Light Pool Party Blends Pen and feathered the edges using the Color Lifter.

The sentiment was stamped in Memento Tuxedo Black ink.

The panel was then glued to the Fresh Freesia panel using Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive and then to the Pool Party card front on Dimensionals.
