I have used the pretty Delicate Dahlias stamp set to make a pretty blue dahlias themed sympathy card.
Colours used in this project:
To recreate the blue dahlias card, you will need:
Misty Moonlight card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored at 4⅛” – rounded upper left corner
Balmy Blue card – 5⅜” by 3⅝” – rounded upper left corner
Basic White card – 5¼” by 3½” – rounded upper left corner
Basic White card – 5½” by 3¾” – rounded upper left corner – for the inside
Scrap Basic White & Balmy Blue
I stamped the outline of the beautiful dahlia in Misty Moonlight ink onto the smaller Basic White panel. The infill stamped was inked in Balmy Blue and stamped to colour the flowers.

The outline of the smaller flower was then stamped in Pale Papaya ink between the dahlias. The infill stamp was inked up with Pale Papaya, stamped off then used to add subtle colour to the flowers.

The stamped panel was added to the Balmy Blue layer with Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive and a length of Pale Papaya Open Weave Ribbon added and secured on the back with Sellotape. The whole piece was then added to the Misty Moonlight card base on Dimensionals.

I stamped the sentiment in Misty Moonlight ink onto scrap Basic White card and punched it out using the Tailored Tag Punch. I punch the same label from scrap Balmy Blue card, cut it in half from side to side and adhered it to the stamped label so that a little of the blue showed top and bottom. It was added over the ribbon on Dimensionals.

A bow was added with a Mini Glue Dot and a trio of Elegant Faceted Gems dotted around to complete the card.
