Earlier this month I Took part in the Stamp ‘n Hop Blog Hop where we were challenged to make a card using the following colours – Blueberry Bushel, Lovely Lipstick, Granny Apple Green and Silver. I loved this colour combo so much I thought I would use it again for thoday’s card using the Soft Spring stamp set.
To Recreate the Soft Spring card you will need:
Blueberry Bushel card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored at 4⅛” – rounded upper right corner
Whisper White cardstock – 5⅜” by 3⅝” x 2 – rounded upper right corner
Silver Foil – 4 ¼” by 3¼” – rounded upper right corner
Whisper White cardstock 4” by 3” – rounded upper right corner
Scrap Blueberry Bushel for the sentiment
I ran one of the larger Whisper White panels through my Big Shot with the Mosiac Embossing Folder. I wrapped a length of ⅛” Lovely Lipstick Grosgrain ribbon around the panel securing it on the back with Sellotape.

I stamped the delphinium like flowers onto the small panel of Whisper White using the Memento Tuxedo Black ink.
The leaves were infilled using the Granny apple Green ink and the solid leaf stamp. The bottom of the flowers were inked up using the Blueberry Bushel ink pad and the topof the flowers using the Lovely Lipstick ink pad. You could also do this using Stampin’ Write Markers.

The Embossing buddy was then swiped over the stamped panel to remove static and the dragonfly stamped using Versamark ink. I covered the image with Silver Embossing Powder and hear set it usig my Heat Tool.

The stamped piece was then mounted onto the Silver Foil layer using Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive and the whole panel was added to the card front on Dimensionals.

The sentiment was stamped in Versamark ink onto a scrap of Blueberry Bushel, covered with the Silver Embossing Powder and heat set as before.
I added a bow in the same ribbon and some Metallic Pearls in silver to complete the card front.

I stamped the dragonflies onto the remaining Whisper White panel and glued it to the inside of the card. The dragonflies were then stamped in the same ink onto a Whisper White envelope.
Such a soft and pretty card, love the 2 tone flowers. I hope you like it.
