I used the Stampin’ Up! stamp sets Sheltering Tree and Cottage Greetings to create my card to share today.

My card design was inspired by Can You Case It #80.

And the colors for my card were inspired by Fab Friday #69.

I started by stamping the flowers from the Cottage Greetings stamp set in Lost Lagoon ink across the bottom of a panel of Lost Lagoon card stock.  Then I stamped the sentiment from that stamp set in VersaMark Ink over the flowers, sprinkled it with White Stampin’ Emboss Powder and heat embossed it.

I adhered the stamped panel to a panel of Blackberry Bliss card stock with SNAIL, then to a Mossy Meadow card base with Stampin’ Dimensionals.  I stamped the images from the Sheltering Tree photopolymer stamp set in Crumb Cake, Mossy Meadow, Blackberry Bliss and Lost Lagoon inks on a panel of Whisper White card stock.

For the images of the tree leaves, clouds and grass, I inked the stamp, stamped it on scrap paper and then stamped it on the card stock to give the colors a little different shading.  I cut the stamped image into 4 pieces and adhered them with SNAIL to a panel of Mossy Meadow card stock, then with Stampin’ Dimensionals to a panel of Blackberry Bliss card stock.

I adhered the layered window image to the card front with SNAIL, then pulled a strand of Linen Thread through a Classy Designer Button, tied a bow and adhered it to the card front with a Glue Dot.

I stamped the images from the Sheltering Tree stamp set on a Whisper White panel inside the card in Mossy Meadow, Blackberry Bliss and Lost Lagoon inks.
