Today I am sharing a card made using the Hanging Garden stamp set for the Inspire Create #041 Challenge. The challenge this week is a sketch challenge, love these, they are great for pushing you out of your comfort zone.
To recreate the Hang in There card you will need;
Granny Apple Green card base 8¼” by 5⅞” scored and folded at 4⅛”
Whisper White cardstock 5½” by 3 ¾”
Tropical Escape dsp 3⅝” by 2½”
Tropical Escape dsp 3⅝” by 2⅞”
Shaded Spruce 5⅞” by 2⅛”
Whisper White 5⅞” by 2”
Whisper White 5⅜” by 3⅝” – for the inside
Scrap Whisper White for the sentiment
I began by using Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive to glue the 2 pieces of designer series paper (dsp) to the larger Whisper White panel with one piece slightly overlapping the other. I wrapped a piece of Granny Apple Green Ribbon around the panel covering the join and attached the ribbon on the back with Sellotape. This whole piece was then attached to the Granny Apple green card base using the same adhesive.

I stamped the hanging baskets from the Hanging Garden stamp set each one below the next in Memento Tuxedo Black ink. I used the following Blends markers to colour in the images – Flirty Flamingo combo, Granny Apple Green combo, Petal Pink combo, Crumb Cake combo and Highland Heather light. I deliberately chose these colours to mimic the colour palette of the dsp.

The stamped and coloured layer was then added to the card front on Dimensionals. The sentiment from the same stamp set was stamped in Shaded Spruce ink onto a scrap of Whisper White and trimmed down with my scissors. It was added to the panel with the Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive.

I stamped one of the baskets onto the Whisper White panel for the inside of the card and onto the front of the envelope.
