The lovely Scenic Garden stamp set was used to make this pretty water-coloured birthday card.
Colours used in this card are:
To recreate the scenic garden card, you will need:
Soft Suede card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” – scored at 4⅛”
Sweet Sorbet card – 5⅛” by 3⅝”
Fluid 100 card – 5” by 3½”
Very Vanilla card – 5½” by 3¾” – for the inside
Scrap Soft Suede card
I mounted the image stamp onto one of the plates from my Stamparatus, inked it up with Memento Tuxedo Black ink and stamped it down onto the panel of Fluid 100 paper. Because the water colour card so textured I find I need to stamp two or three times to get a good impression and the Stamparatus makes this so easy to do.

Using a Water Painter and inkpads I coloured in the image. I used Soft Suede ink for the bench, Granny Apple Green for the grass and foliage, Sweet Sorbet for the flowers, Smoky Slate for the ground and finally Balmy Blue for the sky and to pull the whole image together.

When it was dry, I glued the water-coloured panel to the Sweet Sorbet layer using Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive. I wrapped a length of Linen Thread around the panel before mounting it onto the Soft Suede card base on Dimensionals.

The sentiment, from the Amazing Year stamp set was stamped in Versamark ink onto scrap Soft Suede card, covered it with White Embossing Powder and set it using my Heat Tool. I cut the sentiment apart and added it to the card front.

A trio of Red Rhinestones and a Linen Thread bow completed the card. I hope you like it.
