I used the Stampin’ Up! Relaxing Waterside stamp set bundle from the upcoming May-August 2026 Catalog to create my project for the Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop. We’ve got a color challenge this week and this is what I made for it.
Here are the colors that we’re using this week:
I started by tearing a panel of scrap paper and then using a Blending Brush to apply Pecan Pie ink to the lower area of a panel of Basic White card stock. I moved the paper up slightly and added additional Pecan Pie ink to the panel. Then I used Blending Brushes to apply Cloud Cover and Night Of Navy inks to the upper area of the Basic White Panel.
I inked the grass images from the Relaxing Waterside stamp set (available May 5) with Old Olive and Pecan Pie inks and then stamped the images across the Basic White panel. I inked the bird image from the Relaxing Waterside stamp set in Pecan Pie ink, stamped it on scrap paper and then stamped it on the Basic White card stock panel. I stamped the sentiment from the Relaxing Waterside in Secret Sea ink on the panel and then adhered the panel to the Thick Basic White card front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
I cut panels of Pretty Peacock and Cloud Cover card stocks with the chair dies from the Relaxing Waterside Dies (available May 5). I adhered the die cuts together with Multipurpose Liquid Glue and then adhered the die cut chairs to the card front with Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added two Cloud Cover dots from the Moody Palette Glossy Dots to finish the card front.
I stamped the sentiment in Secret Sea ink and then stamped the grass images in Old Olive and Pecan Pie inks on a panel of Basic White card stock to finish the inside of the card.
