I pulled out the Choose Happiness stamp set from Stampin’ Up! to make this card because I thought that the sentiment would work perfectly in the oval space. And I added a few flowers, well, because I’m in love with all of the new flower stamps in the catalog! 🙂

Choose Happiness - Stamp With Amy K

My card design was inspired by the Monday Lunchtime Sketch Challenge 318.

I started by adhering a panel of Back to Black DSP to a Basic Black card stock panel with SNAIL. Then I adhered Melon Mambo and Basic Black card stock rectangles to the left side of the panel with SNAIL.

Choose Happiness 2 - Stamp With Amy K

I colored the sentiment from the Choose Happiness stamp set with my Garden Green, Melon Mambo and So Saffron Stampin’ Write Markers, stamped it on a Whisper White panel, cut it out with an Ovals Collection Framelits Die and adhered it to the panel with SNAIL. Then I colored a piece of the new Whisper White 5/8″ Satin Ribbon with my So Saffron Marker and I adhered it to the card front with SNAIL. The ribbon colored beautifully with the marker too, I love the new Satin Ribbons!

Beautiful Bunch - Stamp With Amy K

I stamped the stems from the Flower Patch stamp set in Garden Green ink, cut them out with the Flower Fair Framelits Die and adhered them to the card front with a touch of Multipurpose Liquid Glue. Then I stamped the flower images from the Beautiful Bunch stamp set in Melon Mambo and So Saffron inks, punched them out with the Petite Petals Punch and adhered them to the card front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.

Choose Happiness 1 - Stamp With Amy K I tied a bow from the new Melon Mambo 1/4″ Cotton Ribbon (which I also love, by the way!) and adhered it to the panel with a Glue Dot, then colored three Rhinestone Basic Jewels with my Rich Razzleberry and Daffodil Delight Stampin’ Blendabilities Markers and adhered them to the flower centers. I finished the card front by adhering the decorated panel to a Melon Mambo card base with Stampin’ Dimensionals.

Beautiful Bunch 1 - Stamp With Amy K

I stamped the flower images from the Beautiful Bunch stamp set in Melon Mambo ink and the stems from the Flower Patch stamp set in Garden Green ink across the bottom of a Whisper White panel inside the card.
