Using the Tailored Tag Punch, I punched a label from the centre of the Flirty Flamingo panel before adhering the Daffodil Afternoon dsp.

I added the contrasting strip of dsp before adding the panel to the Basic Black card front on Dimensionals.

The sentiment was stamped in Flirty Flaming ink and punched out using the Tailored Tag Punch. The Flirty Flamingo label was cut across the middle and added to the back.

I added a bow using the metallic ribbon and a trio of Classic Matte Dots.

Scalloped Edge card

Thick Very Vanilla card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored and folded at 4⅛”
Daffodil Delight card – 6” by 3”
Daffodil Afternoon dsp – 5⅞” by 2¾”

We die cut the scalloped border using the Scalloped Contour Dies along the edge of the Daffodil Delight panel.

The Daffodil Afternoon dsp panel was added to the Daffodil Delight panel with liquid glue.

The sentiment was stamped in Mossy Meadow ink before the whole panel was added to the card front on Dimensionals.

Spring Flowers card

Mossy Meadow card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored and folded at 4⅛”
Pale Papaya card – 5⅝” by 3⅞”
Daffodil Afternoon dsp – 5½” by 3¾”
Pale Papaya card – 3⅞” by 1¾”
Very Vanilla card 2¾” by 2”

The Daffodil Afternoon dsp was glued to the Pale Papaya panel and the panel was added with the same glue to the Mossy Meadow card front.

The strip of Pale Papaya was stamped using the dotty image from the Daffodil Daydream stamp set in Pale Papaya ink. I then tore the strip down each side and added it to the card front.

The sentiment was stamped in Mossy Meadow ink on the small piece of Very Vanilla card and punched out using the Tailored Tag Punch. The label was then added on Dimensionals. A trio of 2021 – 2023 In Color Jewels completed the card.

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

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.

Using Poppy Parade ink, I added a couple of flowers to the stems. These are rather pale as my Poppy Parade inkpad needed re-inking.

I added another flower stamped in Bumblebee ink. The stamped panel was then added to the Garden Green panel with Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive. I used the same liquid glue to add the whole piece to the Poppy Parade card base.
