Hello and welcome to the Retiring In Colors Blog Hop where we are saying a sad goodbye to the lovely colours we have had the pleasure of using for the last 2 years. I have also taken the opportunity to use my favourite retiring stamp set, Beautiful Friendship.
Colours used in this project are:
To recreate the Goodbye card, you will need:
Seaside Spray card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored at 4⅛” – rounded upper left corner
Pretty Peacock – 5⅝” by 3⅞” – rounded upper left corner
Basic White – 5½” by 3¾” – rounded upper left corner – one for the inside
Pretty Peacock – 3” by 3”
Basic White – 3” by 3”
I began by stamping the largest flower in Rococo Rose ink at the top and bottom of one of the Basic White panels.

I added the ‘hydrangea image’ in Purple Posy ink. The other flowers were added in Terracotta Tile and Seaside Spray ink

The leaves were added in Pretty Peacock ink. The stamped panel was then added to the Pretty Peacock layer with Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive. Using the same glue I added the layer to the Seaside Spray card front.

I stamped the sentiment in Pretty Peacock ink onto the small square of Basic White card and die cut it using the Layering Circles Dies and Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine.

Using the same set of dies I cut a slightly larger scalloped circle from the square of Pretty Peacock. The sentiment was glued to the scalloped circle with Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive.

The sentiment piece was added to the card front on Dimensionals.
I will really miss these colours, particularly Seaside Spray and Pretty Peacock. I hope you like the card.
