Today’s card was inspired by a sketch challenge at TGIF.

I began by using a Stylish Shapes Die to cut a 2 3/4″ square from Frames & Flowers Specialty Paper.  Then, I backed it for thickness, and placed it on Dimensionals. To decorate the top left corner, like the sketch, I glued three flowers that were punched out from the same specialty paper. Click on the picture in my Products List below to see details of this amazing paper. It’s scheduled to be available the week of August 5th.

Frames & Flowers

For the bottom, right corner, I stamped a sentiment in Lost lagoon Ink, and used a Stylish Shapes Die for cutting the label. “Thanks” is from the Wonderful Thoughts Stamp Set. The bird perched atop the sentiment label is from the Country Birdhouse Bundle. I stamped her in Lost Lagoon Ink on Basic White Cardstock, used her die for cutting, and colored her with a Soft Sea Foam Stampin’ Blend. Both were attached with Dimensionals, doubled under the sentiment label, to make it even.

The background is Soft Sea Foam Cardstock, 3 3/4″ X 5″, embossed with the Birch Wood Embossing Folder. This is layered on Basic White Cardstock, 4″ X 5 1/4″, which is layered on a Soft Sea Foam card base, 8 1/2″ X 5 1/2″, folded at 4 1/4″. Blooming Pearls were added as a final touch. They happen to be my host code gift for the month of July. See below, how to make them yours.
