For today’s card, I used the challenge at Freshly Made Sketches for inspiration.

Meadow in Blue
I began with a Thick Basic White card base, 8 1/2″ X 5 1/2″, folded at 4 1/4″, topped with Basic White Cardstock, cut with the largest Stitched Rectangles Die.
Next, I used the fourth largest Stitched Rectangles Die to cut a blue piece of Beauty Of The Earth Designer Paper. Then, I stamped the wonderful, wild flower stamp in Night Of Navy Ink on the blue paper. Can you see the clouds? I layered this with Thick Basic White Cardstock, so it would be sturdy atop Foam Adhesive Strips, which I used to raise it.
Prior to attaching the raised panel, I stamped a large, single flower in Night Of Navy Ink in the corner of the Largest Stitched Rectangle.
All I needed was a small sentiment, which I found in the Sweet As A Peach Stamp Set. I stamped “To a sweet friend!” in Night Of Navy Ink, and used a Peach Die for cutting.
Four Artistry Blooms Self-Adhesive Sequins were the final touch, and super easy to apply. The sequins happen to be my “host code” gift this month, and you can read below how to receive them.
Here is my inspiration from Freshly Made Sketches.
