I used the Stampin’ Up! host exclusive stamp set called Because You Care and the Flower Shop stamp set to create my card to share.
My card design was inspired by CAS(E) this Sketch #105.
The colors for my card were inspired by Pals Paper Arts #235.
And the background for my card was inspired by Just Us Girls #275.
I started by placing the circle stencil from the Dots & Stripes Decorative Masks over two panels of Soft Sky card stock. I sponged over the circles in Soft Sky ink to give the background a muted design. Then I adhered the larger panel to an Island Indigo card base with SNAIL.
I inked up part of the sentiment from the Because You Care host exclusive stamp set in Island Indigo ink and I stamped it on the smaller stenciled panel. Then I stamped the scroll image above and below the sentiment in Pool Party ink and I adhered the stamped panel to a panel of Island Indigo card stock with SNAIL, then to the card front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
I stamped the flower image from the Flower Shop stamp set in VersaMark Ink and I stamped it on a panel of Island Indigo card stock. I sprinkled the image with Pool Party Stampin’ Emboss Powder and heat embossed it. I punched the flower out with the matching Pansy Punch and I adhered it to the card front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
I adhered a heart button from the Sweet Dreams Designer Buttons pack to the center of the flower with a Glue Dot, then tied a bow from the Soft Sky Twine in the Painted Blooms Cotton Twine pack and adhered it over the button with a touch of Multipurpose Liquid Glue.
I stamped the scroll image from the Because You Care stamp set in Island Indigo ink on a Whisper White panel inside the card.
