Thank you for joining me for the February Stamp ‘N Hop Blog Hop. If you have joined me from Laura Mackie I am sure you were inspired by her project. Our theme today is ‘Colouring’ and I have chosen to use the stunning Grace’s Garden stamp set.
To recreate the Grace’s Garden card you will need:
Crumb Cake card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored at 4⅛” – Rounded Upper Left corner
Flirty Flamingo – 5” by 3¼” – Rounded Upper Left corner
Whisper White – 4⅞” by 3⅛” – Rounded Upper Left corner
Whisper White – 5⅜” by 3⅝” – Rounded Upper Left corner – for the inside
Scrap Whisper White
I began by stamping the gate onto the Whisper White panel using Crumb Cake ink. I used the same ink to stamp the hollyhocks and the other little flowers on either side of the gate.

The stamped images were then coloured in using the following Blends Marker – Crumb Cake combo, Granny Apple Green combo, Flirty Flamingo combo and dark Highland Heather. I added a touch of sky by sponging on some Balmy Blue ink.

I glued the stamped layer to the Flirty Flamingo panel using the Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive.

Taking a length of Linen Thread I wrapped it round the panel and tied it in a bow.
I stamped the hollyhock image along the bottom of the Crumb Cake card base in Crumb Cake ink and added the stamped panel to the card base on Dimensionals.

The sentiment from the New Wonders stamp set was stamped onto a scrap strip of Whisper white and trimmed out and the end flagged using scissors. I added the sentiment under the Linen Thread bow.

A trio of pearls were coloured using the dark Flirty Flamingo Blends Marker before being added to the card front.
