Hello and welcome to the Stamping INKspirations Blog Hop where we have a sketch challenge. Love a sketch challenge as they often push me out of my comfort zone. I have made a flowering greenhouse card which I hope you will like.
Colours used in this project are:
To recreate the flowering greenhouse card, you will need:
Balmy Blue card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored at 4⅛”
Basic White card – 4” by 3”
Old Olive card – 4 ½” by 1” x 2
Basic White card – 5½” by 3¾” for the inside
Scrap Basic White card
Using Balmy Blue ink, I stamped one of the leafy images down the right side of the Balmy Blue card base and set it to one side.
I stamped the large leafy image in Old Olive ink onto the small panel od Basic White card and added one of the smaller leafy images to the right and left in Garden Green ink.
The flowers were added with Gorgeous Grape ink, Petal Pink ink and Magenta Madness ink.
Using Versamark ink, I stamped the greenhouse over the stamped panel, covered the ink with Silver Embossing Powder and heat set it using my Heat Tool. Balmy Blue ink was added to the background using a Blending Brush.
Using one of the Basic Borders Dies and my Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine I die cut a stitched zigzag border from the 2 strips of Old Olive card and added them to the top and bottom of the inked panel using Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive. The panel was the added to the card front on Dimensionals.
The sentiment was stamped on scrap strips of Basic White card and trimmed them down and flagged the ends with Scissors. They were added to the card front with liquid glue.
Basic Rhinestones were added to the centre of the daisy type flower.
I hope you like my take on the sketch.
Please continue to hop on and see what my fellow demonstrators have to share with us today.

That’s lovely – hadn’t really noticed that bundle before.
Really cute
I dont get this bundle at all. the flowers are way out of proportionl to the building, so the building is totally irrelevant. Proves demonstrators will go for anything just because Stampin Up put it in the catalog.
I saw my greenhouse as rambling and overgrown in a neglected garden Jean x
