I used the Stampin’ Up! Grateful Bunch and Helping Me Grow stamp sets from the upcoming 2016 Occasions Catalog to create my card to share today.

My card design was inspired by Pals Paper Arts #280.

I started by stamping the leaf image from the Grateful Bunch photopolymer stamp set (available Jan 5) in Mint Macaron ink on a Mint Macaron card stock panel.  Then I stamped the lace border image from that stamp set across the panel in Mossy Meadow ink.

I adhered strips of Pearl Basic Jewels across the stamped lace banner, then adhered the stamped panel to a panel of Mossy Meadow card stock with SNAIL and to a Watermelon Wonder card base with Stampin’ Dimensionals.

I stamped the sentiments from the Helping Me Grow photopolymer stamp set (available Jan 5) in Mossy Meadow and Watermelon Wonder inks on a panel of Very Vanilla card stock.  I stamped the border image around the sentiment in Mint Macaron ink, then cut it out with the matching Rose Garden Thinlits Dies.  I sponged a little Mint Macaron ink around the edges and adhered the sentiment to the card front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.

I stamped the flower image from the Grateful Bunch stamp set in Watermelon Wonder ink three times on a Very Vanilla card stock panel.  I used my Blender Pen and a little Watermelon Wonder and Crushed Curry inks to add a touch of color to the images, then punched them out with the matching Blossom Bunch Punch (available in a bundle with the Grateful Bunch stamp set Jan 5) and adhered them to the sentiment panel with Glue Dots (two side flowers) and Stampin’ Dimensionals (center flower).

I stamped the leaf image from the Grateful Bunch stamp set in Mint Macaron ink on a panel of Very Vanilla card stock inside the card.
